Story

So after much though and quite a bit of procrastination, I’ve finally decided to run a marathon!

I’m only going to run one marathon ever, so it had to be the London Marathon 2025.

So a big decision all round and naturally I want to use this opportunity to fundraise if possible and my chosen charity is the Jesuit Refugee Service, JRS UK, which works tirelessly to support refugees.

People who have been forced to flee their homes and seek sanctuary in the UK are often faced with destitution and hostility.

JRS UK accompanies, serves and advocates for the rights of refugees - providing essential support like food, accommodation and advice as well as helping people to navigate a hostile asylum system.
