Hi Everyone!
As some of you may have seen, I have started to run more since the start of lockdown. Although I have been and am struggling with the idea of running more, I thought I would set myself a challenge and run a half-marathon by the end of August. This is a big step for me, since I have never run more than 10K and actually never managed more than 5K at once before the start of 2020.
Being able to work during this lockdown as a member of the prison service has been my personal 2020 lifesaver, despite all the challenges that work presents - especially as living by myself and not knowing when I’ll see my family next has impacted my life.
Therefore, I’m fundraising for the Prison Reform Trust, a charity who are working towards a just and effective penal system by effecting change from the inside. One of their aims is to break the cycle of reoffending, which costs society approximately £18 billion, a mission that has influenced my decision of joining the prison service and that I thoroughly believe in.
Every donation or share of my fundraiser is greatly appreciated.
Lots of love,
Tamara
