We safe and decent homes for families to build new lives, hopes and opportunities

Story

On Sunday 11th Octoer I'm running the Royal Parks Half Marathon, kicking up autumn leaves along a 13.1 mile route through St James Park, Green Park, Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens.

I'm doing this for Habitat for Humanity. The charity was started in 1976 with the sole aim of tackling poverty housing on a global scale. Thirty two years later it works in over 90 countries around the world and has built 300,000 homes in partnership with people in need of safe, decent housing. Have a look at www.habitatforhumanity.org.uk for more information.

I think it's a pretty worthy cause. I've pledged to raise £200 but I'm sure can do better than that with so many generous friends.

Justgiving is very easy to use and the money goes straight to the charity. Please, donate something. Even better, donate and come along to see me finish (hopefully) on the 11th at the end, along the south side of Hyde Park near Knightsbridge.

About the charity

We believe decent homes are the heartbeat of strong communities and so we also fight for land rights for women, upgrade urban slums and informal settlements, improve access to water and sanitation, and help communities become more resilient in the face of natural disasters.
