Join the 2.6 challenge!

Support the Sycamore Trust during lockdown

Sycamore Trust staff are joining in with the 2.6 challenge and we need your support!  Like so many charities, we have been affected by the current situation and so many of our fund raising plans have been postponed because of the lockdown.

This Sunday would have been the London Marathon, an event that raises tens of millions for charity and the 2.6 challenge has been designed to help plug the fundraising gap caused by Covid-19.  The name is taken from the date of this Sunday's race and it can mean anything you want it to.  You could run or walk 2.6 miles, or 2.6km.  You could bake 26 cupcakes, or walk up and down your stairs 26 times, or do 260 laps of your garden - it's up to you!  

If all of this sounds like a lot of effort, don't worry, because at the Sycamore Trust we're doing all the hard work and we're grateful for any contributions to the cause.  Click here to join in, or to donate; https://twopointsixchallenge.justgiving.com/get-involved?charityId=246432
