Story
My colleague Will and I are getting involved in "My One25 Miles" this July to support the work of One25.
Whilst we plan to split the 125miles between us, we're ambitiously aiming to raise £125 each, with match funding generously offered by our place of work, Godfrey Wilson.
We're going to travel these 125miles through whatever means we can; walking, running, swimming, yoyo-ing, pogo-ing, shimmying...we'll get there one way or another, culminating in the last mile skipping laps around Queen's Square with as many of our colleagues as we can persuade (colleagues, if you're reading this, now you know you're getting involved too!)
Many thanks in advance for your support, please read on for more information about this fantastic local charity.
"One25 is a Bristol women' charity which reaches out to some of the city' most marginalised women. One25 support them to move from crisis and trauma towards independence in the community. Wherever they are in their journeys, we give love and practical support, without judgment or expectation.
£20 could pay for a week's Freephone service to the outreach van, giving women a direct lifeline to vital support.
£6 could stock the outreach van for a night, giving women the vital nourishment and supplies that they need.
£70 could support a woman to complete a homelessness application, supporting her to enter the homelessness pathway and get the housing support she needs".
