In January I am running my first half marathon (longest run previously was 6 miles) alongside Gwen, my daughter who will be doing a 10k run.

Children in Gaza are living through a nightmare – one that gets more distressing by the hour.

Children in Gaza and Israel have been killed, maimed, abducted and subjected to unspeakable violence. Hospitals and schools sheltering civilians have been destroyed.

The children caught up in this terrible conflict – who had nothing to do with causing it –urgently need your help.

WHAT SAVE THE CHILDREN ARE DOING TO HELP CHILDREN IN GAZA

A snapshot of their planned response includes:

- distributing more essential supplies, such as water, food, toiletries, cooking utensils, and other household essentials.

- delivering Mental Health and Psychosocial Support services for children and caregivers.

- setting up child friendly spaces so children have a safe space to play and recover.
