We’re excited (and a little nervous!) to be running with Team New Horizon in the 2025 Hackney Half Marathon to raise funds and awareness for young people experiencing homelessness. For most of us, this will be our first-ever half marathon, making it an even bigger challenge – but one we're proud to take on for such an important cause!

Every year, thousands of young Londoners are pushed into homelessness and danger through no fault of their own. That’s why New Horizon Youth Centre exists.

Last year 136,000 young people asked for help from their local council because they were homeless or at risk of homelessness. New Horizon are the only youth-specific rough sleeping outreach service and the only youth-specific day centre in London, where young people from all across London can access their holistic support.

By supporting our run, you're helping make sure that New Horizon can continue providing life-changing services, ensuring that every young person has the chance to build a brighter future.

We believe that every young person deserves a safe place to call home. Please donate to help us support the incredible work New Horizon is doing to give these young people the resources, opportunities, and care they need to thrive. ❤️

Thank you,

Becky, Susana, Maria and Bryony
