The Challenge
A group of ORDINARY people are taking part in an EXTRAORDINARY challenge in memory of Sam, a young boy who tragically passed away in 2021, age five from FIRES (Febrile Infection Related Epilepsy Syndrome). Our goal is to raise £50,000 for UK FIRES research and to increase awareness of this catastrophic and devastating syndrome.
On Friday, 20th September 2024, our team will embark on a KICK SCOOT from Aston University in Birmingham, home of the first UK FIRES research, to Sam’s hometown of DERBY. We will cover 44 miles over three days with no electric scooter in sight!
A core team will scoot for the three days plus a tag team will join for half or full days. On the final day, many more of Sam’s friends and Sam’s Superheroes supporters will join us as we make the final journey into his hometown. Sam is the heart and soul of this challenge, he adored his red scooter and rode it everywhere. His mum, Rachel, will carry that scooter on her back throughout the challenge, ensuring Sam is very much a part of the team!
