Papyrus 2000 Burpee Challenge

Our little team is made up of husband and wife Patrick and Charlotte, plus 10 year old Milo.  (3 Year old Alice is not taking part but will no doubt bring us refreshments throughout the challenge.)

Milo chose the charity because he felt passionate about helping young people through this difficult time. 90% of the calls Papyrus are getting are in relation to troubles due to Covid-19, from mental health from being alone to worry about jobs and finances. 

Smaller charities are missing a lot of extra money during this time of lockdown and we wanted to do something as a family to support this crucial support system. Papyrus have been running their 'Hopeline' throughout the lockdown, fielding calls from people who really need somewhere to turn to.  

We hope that by raising some funds through our 2000 burpee challenge we may help them carry on with their life-saving work. We are a fit family and love working out, but burpees are our nemesis so it only seemed right to do them in a bid to raise important funds.  We will be filming our daily burpees and sharing them on Instagram @glory_and_glow and possibly doing them on Instagram live too so come and follow our progress as we attempt 2000+ burpees in 7 days starting on Milo's birthday, 11th May.
