Brathay 10in10 Athlete
For me, Brathay is a charity that offers change and hope to those young people who are lucky enough to receive their help. With the right support their lives can get better – this is why I’ll try to put myself through a little discomfort for ten days to raise funds to support Brathay in their work. To quote a young person:
They support you, but they ask you to take responsibility.
What other charity can affect change in someone like that?
Nothing original to add about myself, it really doesn’t matter what I’ve achieved before, so here’s a few words from First Aid Kit and their song My Silver Lining:
“There’s no starting over. No new beginnings, time races on. And you’ve just gotta keep on, keeping on”
