I will be taking part in the 2022 Reading half marathon in order to raise awareness and funds to help support Khalsa Aid in their rural water projects running across Africa. I hope to raise enough to provide a small rural village in Africa with water pump in order for them to access clean water.

Khalsa Aid is an international NGO with the aim to provide humanitarian aid in disaster areas and civil conflict zones around the world. The organisation is based upon the Sikh principle of "Recognise the whole human race as one".The charity was founded by Ravinder (Ravi) Singh, who was struck by the plight of the refugees in Kosovo in 1999.That year also marked the 300th birth anniversary of the Khalsa – an opportunity for the community to reflect on the core teachings of their faith.
