Story

I will be running the Hackney Half Marathon to raise money for Hackney Foodbank. This amazing charity has been providing emergency food and support to individuals and families in crisis across Hackney since 2012.

You may be wondering why I have decided to run a half marathon with less than four weeks to go and without any training. Well, the answer is simple - it is all for a good cause! and I probably won't die.

With your kind donations, I hope to reach the finish line and raise as much money as possible for Hackney Foodbank.

Hackney Foodbank work tirelessly to ensure that no one in Hackney goes hungry by providing emergency food, support and advice to those in need. They rely solely on donations from the community and volunteers to operate. The foodbank provides food parcels to those in need, which contain enough food for three meals a day for three days. They also provide additional support and advice to help people out of crisis, such as debt counselling, benefit advice, and support with finding employment.

What makes Hackney Foodbank even more special is that they
are a local charity. This means that every penny raised goes directly to
supporting people in the Hackney area. By donating, you will be directly contributing to the vital work of Hackney Foodbank and helping those who need it the most in our community.
