Story

On Sunday 11 October Broadway's first ever team of Half runners will be taking part in the Royal Parks Half. 

Broadway is a based homelessness charity, supporting homeless and vulnerable people to find a job, keep a home and break the cycle of homelessness.  We are about long term solutions.  With more people facing hardship in this current economic climate and funders being inundated with requests for money across the board; our need for funding for this year is even more urgent.

The team is made up of enthusiastic runners from Broadway, Trowers and Hamlins, Digby Morgan and Thomas Eggar.

The training has been hard graft for everyone: earlier on this week, three members of the team could be seen running through in a torrential downpour, being laughed at by members of the public.  Please make sure their efforts aren't in vain!!  Your donation will make a real difference to the lives of homeless people in and every donation counts.

£5 pays for a new pair of plimsoles for a homeless person
