50 Burpees a Day for 50 Days

Hi, myself and Vicky Maqueen are taking on on 50 burpees a day for 50 days — that’s 2,500 burpees — to raise money for the incredible Matt Gallagher Foundation.

Why I'm Doing This

Matt Gallagher, was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) in 2023. Instead of backing down, he stood up and launched a foundation to support others battling this brutal disease.

The Matt Gallagher Foundation helps people with MND live fulfilled, dignified lives by providing emotional, financial, and practical support — and it needs our help to keep doing that.

The Challenge

50 burpees a day

For 50 days straight

That’s 2,500 burpees total

And I’m aiming to raise £2,500 — that’s £1 per burpee

Every rep will be for Matt and for everyone fighting MND.

How You Can Help

Donate what you can — £1, £5, £50 — every penny makes a difference

Share this page — spread the word so more people can get behind the cause

Cheer me on — I’ll be posting updates throughout the challenge, and your support will keep me going

This is about more than burpees. It’s about standing up (and getting back up) for those who can’t. For resilience, for community, and for the fight against MND.

Join me. £1 a burpee. £2,500 for Matt.
