A brave team are taking on the difficult Tough Mudder challenge on 22nd August in aid of the JTYAF.

Michelle was a school friend of John's and has recruited some friends to join her - Daniel Whittle, Lena Garrett and Anthony Organ.

Michelle says;

Yes I want to push the boundaries.. see what I am capable of achieving when I put my mind to it and have a sense of accomplishment after finishing Tough Mudder. It is a personal goal of mine and has been for some time! The JTYAF is very close to my heart and I would be so very proud to raise as much money as possible. The charity was set up to help young people in the Dorset area achieve their dreams and goals. It was set up after John Thornton, 'JT' who I went to school with and had the honour of knowing , sadly passed away whilst serving in the Royal Marines in Afghanistan.
