Campaign idea: Josh stepped up to raise his brother
At 27, Josh had his own life. When his mum died, he stepped up to raise his 13-year-old brother.
This story
Josh became a kinship carer when his mum Clare died after an eight-year battle with cancer. At 27, he had to break the news to his 13-year-old brother Max and immediately take on looking after him, buying food and sorting his medication. Alongside his brother Ben and their family, Josh stepped up to care for Max and set out to complete a burpee for every pound raised to support kinship families.
What your brand could do
Fuel Josh through his entire burpee challenge. Host a celebration for his family when the challenge is complete.
