I'm running the Liverpool marathon on the 28th of May for Barnabus, a charity helping people of the street.

Since 2010, homelessness has increased by 54% in the UK and the work done by charities like Barnabus are so important for helping those unfortunate enough to be put in this situation. The problem in Manchester is growing but through their drop in centre and bond scheme, Barnabus are helping to get people off the street and back into society. Check out their website for more info on the work they are doing: http://www.barnabus-manchester.org.uk/
