Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Since its beginnings, Notting Hill Genesis has worked to house people in need all across London, working closely with residents, partners, funders and volunteers to give people a chance to improve their lives and those of others too.

Many people, such as young care leavers, street homeless, and those with mental and physical disabilities struggle to stay housed, so they run projects and schemes that support them to keep a roof over their heads and live as independently as possible. This takes time and money, but for sure it transforms people’s lives.

I'm no seasoned marathon runner - I have done it once and it was difficult, so I am training hard. I see London as a real challenge that I want to do well in but also enjoy. I have close links with the City, being a Freeman of the City, Warden of one of the parishes and Parish Clerk of another. I am hugely grateful for all support!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to Notting Hill Genesis, making it the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Notting Hill Genesis (NHG) works in the community, providing homes for lower-income households. This is our primary purpose, and everything else we do supports that aim. Money raised through fundraising contributes to our hardship fund, helping residents during times of hardship and crisis. Sadly, many of our residents struggle to meet basic food and energy costs or pay for essential household items such as beds, fridges, and cookers. This is often due to vulnerability, ill-health, family bereavement or unexpected gaps in benefit claims. Our hardship fund supports around 500 NHG residents per year during these difficult times, with grants to help ease stress and suffering.
