Story

Success - We completed the 10k today (9 May) in a little over an hour - at the race start I had raised over £1,250 including Gift Aid  - however THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU CAN'T DONATE NOW - THE CAUSES ARE JUST AS IMPORTANT AS THEY WERE THIS MORNING. Read on to find out more .........


We are raising money through our running for 5 great causes, in three very important categories:

 

FOR THOSE IN POVERTY

We are working with World Vision, who are the largest development agency working in Zimbabwe at a time when much of the world’s focus has moved elsewhere. There is a major famine and a huge Cholera outbreak so every penny is vitally needed.

FOR THOSE SUFFERING OPPRESSION

Stop The Traffik is a UK based charity working to put an end to the trade in human beings, whether that be their sale into the sex trade, sweat shop labour or even human sacrifice. That might sound a bit “far-flung”, but I found out yesterday that Bristol is actually the UK capital for such trade.

FOR THOSE IN NEED

We are also supporting three vital Bristol charities in their work:

 

THE NOISE – working with communities in North Bristol to bring practical help and support.

CRISIS CENTRE MINISTRIES – working with the homeless in city centre Bristol, offering support and a way off the streets.
