Thank you for visiting my London Marathon fundraising page. I ran my first marathon in 2016 and said I would never run another unless I got a London place! I’ve been lucky enough to get this place and I am running the 26.2 miles for Refuge to raise funds and awareness for survivors of domestic abuse. Your donations will help Refuge provide services such as the freephone National Domestic Abuse Helpline which is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
With the Basic cost of living rises, it is becoming more difficult for survivors to flee. Perpetrators often control household income, making it harder for survivors to access the money they need to leave. Survivors are having to face impossible choices between fleeing into homelessness and poverty or staying with an abuser. So whilst I know we are all feeling the pinch of rising costs every little helps this great charity to make a difference, so thankyou to everyone for your donations.
Thank you and wish me luck!
