September Reading Challenge

I'm taking on a Reading Challenge in September for Teenage Cancer Trust

This September, I'm taking on my own reading challenge and raising funds to help ensure no young person faces cancer alone. I'm taking on the challenge for Teenage Cancer Trust, the only UK charity who provides specialised nursing care and support for young people with cancer. I'd be grateful for your support.

Your donation, big or small, makes a difference. £25 could pay for an hour with a Youth Support Coordinator to help a young person cope with anxiety and isolation during cancer treatment. 

Thank you!

DAY NINE

DAY 9 of my September Reading Challenge, in support for Teenage Cancer Trust... I set myself an ambitious target of 3000 for September, which is a lot for me!! Well, as you can see, yesterday was a bit of a flop! I spent all day at work in the office, then headed straight to Wales, to get the caravan ready for our next guests. I didn't get back into the house until 11:45pm, so quickly grabbed my kindle and got a grand total of 4 pages read, but that is 4 pages closer to my target! I did get a lot of audiobook listening in though!

DAY 8 of my September Reading Challenge, in support for Teenage Cancer Trust... I set myself an ambitious target of 3000 for September, which is a lot for me!! Yesterday got incredibly busy and I never got chance to update you all on my progress from day 8! I can't believe we are 8 days in already!! I am still behind target, and I really need to sort that out, because I know towards the end of the month, that we have a lot going on, so reading times may be cut short, so I really need to get a wiggle on! I will update you all with yesterdays (Day 9) total later today!

DAY 7 of my September Reading Challenge, in support for Teenage Cancer Trust... I set myself an ambitious target of 3000 for September, which is a lot for me!! It's a bit of a late update today, as I have been decorating most the day! Yesterday, I managed to get in 63 pages, bringing the grand total after 6 days to 651/3000 pages. It was another slow reading day for me yesterday... I was still feeling exhausted, and ended up napping most the day 😅 Not sure I will catch up today, because I have been decorating all day, but something is better than nothing right now!

DAY 6 of my September Reading Challenge, in support for Teenage Cancer Trust... I set myself an ambitious target of 3000 for September, which is a lot for me!! Yesterday, I managed to get in 58 pages, bringing the grand total after 6 days to 588/3000 pages. Yesterday was a slow reading day for me... I was so tired, I just couldn't focus enough! I did finish Fall I Want, and start my new book, The Baby Dragon Cafe though, so some small wins there! Hopefully today I can catch back up. I have the day to myself, with the kids in school, but still feeling super tired, so a day snuggled up with my kindle and naps is required 🤣 You can show your support by donating here to my link in bio and help support Teenage Cancer Trust! #teenagecancertrust #septemberreadingchallenge #booktok #bookish #autumnvibes

My Challenge...

Saturday 15th Aug
I have decided to take part in a reading challenge throughout September, in support of Teenage Cancer Trust. 

I am aiming to read a total of 3000 pages throughout September, the equivalent of 100 pages per day! 

I would really appreciate anyone who can show their support and donate to this wonderful cause, and keep my momentum up! 

I will be keeping regular updates on my fundraising pages, including the books I choose, updates of how far I am into my page target, reviews of the books I choose, so please follow along to see this journey. 

For a little reference, on a good month, I typically read between 1000 - 1500 pages per month, so this is going to be a huge target for me to hit! 

Also open to any book recommendations, bonus points if they are on kindle unlimited!!

Thank you to my Sponsors
