“One of the challenges has been thinking of interesting and different ideas for the challenges. We will be inviting friends, family, carers and our partners to make donations to our Just Giving page or to make the donations in person to the centre.  The members at Millman Street enjoy coming to the Day Centre and participating in physical activities.  So they have risen to the HCA 101 Challenge in different ways to help keep everyone in our community moving.”

What we are doing

David Sexton is walking around the Day Centre and the garden 101 times, so far he has completed 26 laps.

Staff member Sarah is helping Millman Street members Almendra and David to make 101 seasonal cards that they will be selling to raise funds (if you’re interested in buying a Christmas Card get in touch).

The Millman Street Runners will be completing a 101 relaying race in the Day Centre on the 15th of December.

Community Link Worker Naomi Nehemen will be doing her own challenge cycling 101 miles around London over the course of the campaign.  Senior Careworker Steve Lugard will be doing 101 press-ups.  I will be walking to and from Millman Street, covering 101 miles.  Careworker Sarah will be riding her scooter around Regents Park for 101 minutes.
