On the 13th October, I will be running the Royal Parks Half Marathon, for Providence Row Homeless Charity.

For me, running a half marathon is a challenge - especially as someone who hated running a few months ago.

I decided I wanted to run for a charity - Providence Row - who help homelessness in East London. As a medical student living in East London for the past 5 years, I’ve seen how homelessness and deprivation has influenced the community. Providence row is a charity which work closely with the medical school I attend to not only help homelessness, but also drug and alcohol dependency.

Please donate if you can. It would not only be a great motivator but make a genuine difference to many lives.
