Despite saying never again, Jack and Holly have entered the Wimbledon half marathon on the 31st of October. With the 2020 Hackney Half being a virtual affair in the end they felt it was only right that they complete an official half marathon.

Story

Jack, Holly, Chris, Felix, Will and Daisy are taking on the Hackney Half to raise money for Rare Charity. Together they want to raise £6,000 to cover a higher education scholarship on Satemwa Tea Estate community in Malawi, Africa.

Here’s some facts, please sponsor me!

£5: a month's quality medical cover for a scholar

£10: a girl's school uniform

£20: what a tea-plucker in Malawi can expect to earn per month

£25: funds a girl through secondary school for one month

£50: term's fees for a good secondary boarding school

£200: 3 meals per day for a college semester, so a scholar doesn't study on an empty stomach

£1,500: average cost of one year at university, including tuition fees, meals and accommodation

£6,000: an entire, fully inclusive Bachelor's degree scholarship, which will change a life for ever
