500 Mile Charity Challenge

Team photo

Thank you  for visiting our team fundraising page.

We've joined together to raise money for Eat 'n' Meet. A faith inspired project initiated by the Leicester Branch of the Islamic Society of Britain to support the homeless and vulnerable in Leicester.

Eat'n'Meet supports those who are less fortunate than ourselves in a variety of ways.  They run a weekly drop in where those who are homeless can rest and socialise with others, share a hot meal and engage in recreational activities. They also help refugees and asylum seekers with essential food and toiletry parcels.  Eat'n'Meet also helps other groups to set up projects which assist those in need in Leicester.  

They are inspired by the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w): "A believer is not the one who eats his fill when his neighbour is hungry.” (Prophet Muhammad pbuh) 

For this reason we have decided to take part in the '500 Mile Charity Challenge'. For one year we are going to either run, cycle, walk or swim 500 miles to help raise money for this worthy project.

You'll see our team fundraising target on the right. Please dig deep and sponsor us to help us reach our target.
