Make This Ramadan In Lockdown Worthwhile (And Fun! :)

The idea is that participants choose a challenge, any challenge at all, related to 2.6 or 26 (the number of miles in a marathon) and then ask friends and family to sponsor them to try to make up some of the money lost through the Covid-19 lockdown.

Whether youre running around your home for 2.6 miles, doing 26 press-ups with your cat on your back, skipping for 2.6 minutes with your neighbour over the garden fence, or something else just as imaginative were delighted youre helping to save Children of Jannah as one of the UKs charities.

Celebrities are also getting involved in the challenge:

• Paul Chuckle (of Chuckle Brothers fame) is running around the apple tree in his garden;
• Jessica Ennis-Hill is hitting a golf ball 26 times with a cheese grater;
• Jonny Wilkinson is doing 26 keepie uppies with various balls.

The Covid-19 pandemic has had a devastating effect on charities, with the cancellation of thousands of events and the loss of billions in fundraising income.

You are helping Children of Jannah when we need it most.

Please plan your activity, make sure it is safe, at or near your home and that it adheres to Government guidelines on exercise and social distancing during the lockdown.

Please do not try anything too strenuous and always make sure you are well hydrated before exercising.

Once you're ready, remember to help to inspire the nation by sharing photos or videos of your challenge, tag your friends on social media and challenge them to join in too, making sure you use the official hashtag #TwoPointSixChallenge

Right now, be sure to promote this fundraising page via your emails, WhatsApp and social media posts.
