Episode notes
Some people run marathons, others bake cakes… and then there are those who strap a fridge to their backs or race down icy slopes in nothing but a helmet and boots! 😳
In this episode of The Charity Show Bites, Tim and Piers dive into the craziest, most extreme, and downright bizarre fundraising challenges attempted in the name of charity. From marathon-running in deep-sea diving suits to cycling across the world on a penny farthing, these fundraisers prove that there’s no limit to human determination (or creativity!).
Tune in to hear about:
🏃♂️ A man who ran 30 half-marathons in 30 days… carrying a fridge!
🩸 An artist who paints entirely in his own blood (yes, really).
🛷 The Naked Sledding World Championships – because fundraising should be fun, right?
🌍 Rowing across the Atlantic at 70 years old to support Alzheimer’s research.
