I am raising money for the Amnesty International UK Charitable Trust by taking part in the Dash to Dubrovnik with Exeter RAG. Amnesty International is a global movement of more than 7 million people who take injustice personally. We are campaigning for a world where human rights are enjoyed by all.
There are currently 26 million refugees around the world. That's over 2.5 times the population of London.
The international community, and in particular wealthy nations, are failing to meaningfully share the responsibility for protecting people who have fled their homes in search of safety.
To help support the work of Amnesty International, I will be running 10km every day for the next 26 days (1 day for each million refugees around the world). Although this is going to be a massive challenge for me, it is nothing compared to what these 26 million people are having to go through.
Please consider donating whatever you can to help me support this fantastic charity!
