Emily's Half Marathon for Whitechapel Welcomes Refugees

Hackney Half Marathon 2019 · 19 May 2019 ·
I’m sure everyone has seen the horrific images of families drowning at sea and freezing in refugee camps across Europe having fled unimaginable terror in Syria…. Community Sponsorship provides a safe route for a refugee family to resettle in the UK.
Whitechapel Welcomes is a Community Sponsorship group, established by some Citizens UK staff members. The group hope to welcome a refugee family to Whitechapel, East London through the Home Office scheme
As part of the commitment to resettle the family, Whitechapel Welcomes needs to raise £12,000. On May 19th 2019 I’ll be running 13.1 miles at the Hackney Half Marathon and I hope to raise some money for the group. Please, please donate if you are able to– it will make a real difference!
Thank you for reading 😊
