A Jarrow gym is turning to the public for support ahead of a huge challenge for charity.
The town’s 38 Fitness Gym is encouraging people to help in its Everest Challenge, which will see fitness fanatics hope to climb the height of the world’s tallest mountain on one of the gym’s stepping machines.


Taking place for 4Louis, a charity supporting families with child loss across the UK, the event will take place on Friday, May 22 between 8am and 8pm.
Some slots to support the team with your own efforts are already taken, but anyone wanting to help can sign up for their own slot on the stepping machine through the gym’s app.
Special cake sales, donation buckets and football cards are also ready to raise additional funds.
Next month one of the gym’s patrons Mark Cameron will also run a 100 mile ultramarathon to honour his son and raise additional funds for 4Louis.
