Make Some Noise helps finance charities tackling poverty, homelessness, domestic abuse, mental health and disabilities.
Vicky, who presents on Heart on Saturday after-noons, said: “I’m at my happiest on the sofa, in my comfies, with my dogs, so this is the opposite of my usual idea of a good time.
“I’m under no illusion that this is going to be tough.

ALEX WARREN is racing toward No1 in the albums chart with his new record Wildchild – the nickname his late father gave him.
It is on course to peak this Friday, giving the singer his second consecutive chart-topper after 2024 debut You’ll Be Alright Kid (Chapter 1).
Courteeners’ compilation record, God Bless The Band, is at No2, while chart veterans Banana- Rama are enjoying a resurgence after the 40th-anniversary reissue of their 1986 album True Confessions, which is flying high at No3.
Band members Keren Woodward, Sara Dallin and Siobhan Fahey said: “We’ve been overwhelmed by the love our fans have shown us for the reissue of this album.”
TROYE SIVAN has bared his soul on new album She’s The Best.
The Aussie singer told Cultured Magazine of the record, out next month: “The new album feels like an almost uncomfortably true picture of my life during tour.
“I was building this reputation as a sexual, joyous pop figure.
“But I would do the shows, and then I would go home to empty hotel rooms.
“I’m a gay guy trying to date other gay guys who also happen to be the demographic that listens to my music.
“That has been very isolating.”
