Story
We are running the Brighton Marathon in April 2022, and following the events unfolding in Ukraine, we are raising funds for the British Red Cross DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.
In Ukraine, ongoing violence is causing people to flee their homes and become separated from their families.
In some areas, water, electricity, and phone connectivity have been affected. Many people are taking cover from the shelling in basements and bomb shelters, but are going without the most basic supplies, like food and water.
Please donate now if you can.

- Providing food, first aid, clean water, shelter support, warm clothing, hygiene parcels and medicines
