SeeAbility's 225 Anniversary Challenge
This year marks SeeAbility’s 225th anniversary. To recognise this huge milestone we are inviting you, our supporters, to celebrate with us by taking on the 225 Challenge.
What is the 225 Challenge?
The short answer: whatever you want it to be!
The long answer: create your own challenge with the target of 225. That could mean cycling 225 miles, making 225 craft items, swimming 225 laps, or whatever else matches your interests! And the fundraising target? How about £225? Set up a fundraising page on JustGiving and ask your friends, family and colleagues to sponsor you with donations.
