Well in Ben mate! Amazing cause!
Ben Peters's Story
Hello everyone.
The Upbeats Walk is returning for it's 10th edition and I'm excited to be taking part in it once again.
Walking is the only form of exercise I'm good at so I might as well put it to good use to help raise vital funds for the Charlton Athletic Community Trust so it can continue to fund the inspirational work that the Upbeats Programme does that is funded entirely by voluntary donations.
The programme is specifically for people with Down’s syndrome. More than 170 participants are registered with the Upbeats, with 40 regular attendees each week. Last year a record-breaking £55,000 was raised for the programme by the 2024 edition of the Upbeats walk and the money went towards the Down's Syndrome Football Festival, provide a progressive and safe environment for players of all ages to reach their full potential, coaching sessions and life skills lessons. The results of the programmes include impacts off the pitch like improved confidence, social skills, improved physical health, mental and emotional wellbeing among it's participants.
Any donations, big or small would be greatly appreciated and make a massive difference!
