Cotswolds Marathon in a day, 7 July 2022
Home-Start focuses on the early years to ensure no child's future is limited. BT's partnership with Home-Start will help us support some of the most disadvantaged families across the UK with emotional, physical, and psychological needs.

Story

On the 18th July a small group of us in Project Delivery will be walking 26 miles along the Cotswold Way to raise money for Home-Start. We begin in Bath, walking up the hill to Lansdown and then follow the route through Little and Old Sodbury before descending into Hillesley where we'll finish for a well earned pint and bite to eat! 

The route is challenging with up to 3,500 feet of elevation. To add to the challenge we are aiming to complete the marathon in under 10 hours. 

Any donations will be greatly appreciated from Hanny, Davey, Ollie, Mollie and Lois. 

Home-Start is a local community network of trained volunteers and expert support helping families with young children through their challenging times. Those precious early years of a child's life lay the foundations of virtually every aspect of human development - affecting how healthy and happy we are, our life chances and even how long we live.The emotional, physical and psychological cost for children in struggling families is immense and can last a lifetime. That's why for almost 50 years Home-Start has supported parents so that they can give their children the best possible start, despite their challenging circumstances.Home-Start volunteers are helping to transform the lives of children with struggling parents. Whatever they're experiencing - such as loneliness, financial difficulty, domestic violence, mental health issues, bereavement, multiple births or disability - our trained volunteers are helping with support focusing on what the families need.
