Liv Vs White Collar Boxing

I am one of Ed's older sisters and his wonderful friends and family continue to try new ways of raising money for the Atlas Foundation and Tanzania Rugby Development Program. My next challenge is a White Collar Boxing Match on the 24th March, something I think Ed would find absolutely hilarious and be so proud of me for. I miss him and can't wait to do this for him and the amazing work the money raised will do for TRD.
