Story

This team comprises 20 women who are running 20km to celebrate the 20th birthday of York Women's Counselling Service. 

Charlotte, Vicky, Annaleigh, Melissa, Katie, Karen, Claire, Emma, Alice, Helen, Victoria, Theresa, Kara, Amy, Pandy, Sarah, Ruth, Sophie, Laura, Alice, Caroline, Rachael and Steph are different ages and levels of fitness, but all committed to raising funds for this small, but vital charity in York. Founded in 2000, YWCS has been providing low cost, and often free, professional counselling to women experiencing psychological trauma. Many cannot afford to pay for private therapy, and so low cost therapy is a life-line. All the therapists and counsellors are volunteers and give their time and expertise to transform the lives of other women. 

The charity relies 100% on donations and fundraising so anything you can contribute will help enormously. Thank you.

20 women, 20km, 20 years of YWCS. And in the year 2020!
