Beckenham personal trainer smashes world record and raises more than £19,000

Have you been on a Cerca climbing machine lately? Scott Lewis of Beckenham, and his clients, spent 24 hours on these challenging climbing machines to beat the world record for the most feet covered in a period of 24 hours. They beat the previous record by 70,000 feet, and all for a great cause.

Scott and his clients at The Bath and Racquets club in Mayfair raised money for Diabetes UK, to help those living with diabetes. The organization is extremely grateful for their extreme efforts. Scott himself has type 1 diabetes, and wants to support others to attain a healthy and manageable life as he has done for himself. Such an inspiration, wouldn't you say? What will you do next to raise funds for an important cause?
