I’m taking on the 99,000 Steps Challenge to support Together for Short Lives.

From 17 - 23 June in Children's Hospice Week, I'll be completing 99,000 steps - one for every child in the UK with a life-limiting condition.

In the UK, there are 54 children's hospices dedicated to caring for seriously ill children and their families. However, these hospices face a funding shortfall and rely heavily on voluntary donations. 

That's why I'm taking on this challenge to raise vital funds for Together for Short Lives and children's hospices, so they can continue to provide services and support for seriously ill children and families facing the unimaginable.
