Ambers Tough Mudder Challenge!



Hi, I’m Amber Member of the Schools Liaison Team at NTU.

Recently, I’ve been getting ready to face a series of adrenaline-pumping challenges and obstacles called Tough Mudder! 

Amongst these are:

·      Lung-busting hills.
·      Woodlands.
·      Water and, tons and tons of mud!



My reasons for taking part:
After taking on the Tough Mudder challenge last year I unfortunately did not manage to complete the course.  I pride myself on the growth mind set of ‘If you fail, get back up and try again’ so I have decided to come back fighting for another year.

My main motivation for the challenge this year has been NTU international volunteering. I am currently volunteering as a team leader for NTU students travelling to Romania to volunteer at a summer school called ‘Little Johns House’ in August. Little Johns House is a Charity set up in Romania to support Romanian Orphans with mental and physical impairments.

 Whilst in Romania we will be engaging the children in lots of fun and exciting activities and enriching experiences involving social interaction, experimental play, music and art therapy. The summer school projects are made possible solely by the help of volunteers and international donations. Therefore, I have been asking for sponsorship to do Tough Mudder as my own personal fundraising for the charity and am not only doing the challenge for myself but also for the children supported by Little John’s House.


Amber will be running the Tough Mudder Saturday the 21st of May 2016. If you wish to donate her charity page is:  http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/AmberPage1
