Next weekend June 21st I will be competing in the WRPF UK qualifier at Viking Strength. I am raising funds to help my sons football team, Northowram Juniors FC buy kit and essential training equipment for next season.
I am encouraging you if possible to make a donation of any size using the go fund me link below, and as part of my deal in this. I WILL take 4 British records next weekend.
Thank you to all those that contribute, your help is greatly appreciated.
