“Julie Dumont is hoping to raise money for charity standing on her head. The Cardiff University PhD student has pledged to do a handstand a day for a year raising money to build a playground in Uganda after taking part in a similar initiative in February. It started when Julie joined a couple from Australia in doing a handstand a day throughout February. ‘Whilst I was doing them people would say, ‘That’s great you should do it for a year,’ said Julie, 26, who is studying to become a doctor in neuroscience. ‘My response was, ‘Are you insane?’ Then February ended and I was like, ‘Great, now what?’ so I decided to do them for a year and raise money for a cause.” w/ photos
