By the time his challenge came to an end, Hall had raised more than £2,000 for three different charities. Christians Against Poverty Redditch (CAP) which supports people facing financial difficulty, Acts of Kindness (AOK) which aims to alleviate hunger and poverty, and BENS, which helps children who are struggling with their mental health or education.

“They’re three charities which benefit local people day in and day out, whether that’s food, advice, support, kids going back into school, family,” said Hall.

“Everybody knows somebody who is in poverty or has lost a job. Young people are struggling in schools.

“So it’s important that the people of Redditch have access to these support services that are badly needed.”
