If you go to the gym, get friends and family to sponsor you on a treadmill, rowing machine or stepper challenge.
Kids: Hold a ‘bring and buy’ sale at your Guides, Brownies or Scouts Club.Have fun in the sun with a car wash, there are plenty of motorists that want a clean car but don’t want to do it themselves.
At School: Get your school onboard & arrange a themed mufti day.Challenge your teachers in a pupils v teachers sports match, quiz or spelling bee.
