Clubfoot is a birth defect in which the foot is twisted out of shape or position, affecting over 10,000 African children every year. I would like to support children in Zimbabwe with clubfoot by raising money to buy foot abduction braces ($20 a pair) that will help change their lives and enable them to walk unassisted.

 

As most of you know, I was involved in a motorbike accident in April 2021 that left me unable to walk. I have been working with my physio towards a goal of walking unassisted on Friday the 17th September 2021 and would like to challenge you to make a donation for the kids' braces. You let me know how much you would like to put forward and if I DON’T walk unassisted on the 17th, I will cover the cost of your pledge!

 

This challenge will not only help to change these kids' lives, but will give me the motivation to walk again too. Are you up for it? Simply WhatsAPP/DM me with how much you would like to pledge before Friday the 17th September. My physio (who runs the clubfoot clinics on donations only) will film my attempt and we will send the video out.

 

Even if you aren’t in a position to donate, please send this messsage on to just 3 friends who you think may be able to help - I would really appreciate it.

 

Thank you for all your support.
