You can work out to the great sound of di erent musical eras in the fun and dynamic classes, have fun and raise money for Charlie at the same time! All the money raised will go to Chance for Charlie to help Charlie’s family to purchase an all- terrain wheelchair. Charlie has recently turned 13 and has a progressive muscle wasting condition called Duchenne muscular dystrophy. is vicious condition meant that Charlie lost the ability to walk in March 2020. Charlie’s family want him to be able to join them on dog walks in the forest and be able to enjoy the beach, unfortunately his current wheelchair isn’t able to deal with the terrain. Louisa Daniels, who runs, Pilates Studio New Forest will be teaching for the full 24 hours. Louisa herself su ers from bowel disease and tires easily, so teaching our 24 hour Pilates-athon will be no mean feat! Louisa, who is a good friend of Charlies’s mum Claire, says: “I have two sons of my own, who manage to enjoy the beautiful forest and beach we have in our surrounding area. It breaks my heart to think that Charlie is unable to do the same. I know if we can raise enough funds for Charlie to have the all-terrain wheelchairs that he needs, will be life changing for him.” Clare Liggett, Charlie’s Mum comments: “We would like to thank everyone in advance for their continued support to Charlie. As a family we are so grateful for the community we live in.” To book you place please email: cfc24pilates@gmail.com If Pilates isn’t your forte you can still help out by donating to the Pilates- athon Just Giving page: www. j us t g i v i ng . com/ c rowdfund i ng / pilatesstudionewforest Special Event at Living After Loss Living a er Loss are hosting a special event on Monday 11th April where between 2pm and 4pm they are having an opportunity for you to use your artistic skills.
