We provide the support needed to give homeless young people a future

Story

Six members of FOURTEEN are running the Royal Parks Half Marathon on 8 October 2023 to support Centrepoint, a charity which aims to end youth homelessness. Centrepoint supports over 14,000 young people a year, providing accommodation and a safe space to build an independent future. Centrepoint helps young people on the path to lasting employment and provide a dedicated helpline, financial and legal advice and is a charity which FOURTEEN also supports at Christmas time.

Here are some examples of what your donation to Centrepoint can provide:

£15 could pay for one food voucher to provide a young person with a hot meal;

£20 could provide a psychotherapy session for a Centrepoint young person;

£100 could enable our Helpline staff to support up to 4 young people facing homelessness into safe shelter.

We are donning our running shoes, putting in hours of training and pounding the streets of London for 13.1 miles on 8 October 2023. Please support us as we raise money for this incredible charity. Every donation is very gratefully received and knowing we have your support will keep us going until we stagger over the finishing line.

Thank you!
