Story

For the first time ever, I will be running the London Marathon on the 23rd of April. This is a huge personal goal for me, and I want to make the most of this moment & raise some much-needed funds for the people affected by the devastating earthquakes in Turkey & Syria.

Over 44,000 people have died, and thousands have been injured in Turkey and Syria.

There are 18 million people in the affected area, many of whom urgently need shelter, food, and medical aid.

More than 54,000 buildings, including hospitals and schools, have been destroyed or damaged. People have been left without shelter in freezing winter conditions.

DEC charities and their local partners are among the first responders providing urgent aid. Following the search and rescue operation, immediate priorities are access to healthcare, shelter for those who have lost their homes, heating in safe spaces, blankets, warm clothes, and ensuring people have food and clean water.

Please dig deep and support - thank you!
