Dan and Joe are running their first ever competitive running event this Sunday - the Barcelona marathon - for CHICKS!
CHICKS provide Country Holidays for Inner City Kids from underprivileged backgrounds. The children CHICKS support come from a variety of backgrounds – those living in poverty, children that are being neglected or abused, either mentally, physically or sexually, children who have lost parents or even children who are full time young carers.
On a camp the kids have a chance to meet new friends, read books, draw and play football - things we take for granted - in a secure and safe environment, without the pressures of their domestic situations.
Having volunteered at a camp before, I have seen how this opportunity to act like a normal kid provides the children with a host of skills they can take back home with them, as well as opportunities they would otherwise not have access to.
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
