ING New York City Marathon 2008 · 2 November 2008 ·

Founded over 100 years ago, UK Youth is a leading national charity that exists to ensure all young people aged 9-25 are equipped to thrive and empowered to contribute at every stage of their lives. UK Youth provides young people with life skills, delivered through a network of youth organisations.

Story

On 4th November I will be running/jogging/crawling the NY marathon.  It is all in a good cause and it is not one of those ones where a charity pays for you to go and do something you want to.

The charity I am running for is UK Youth, it is not one of the most glamourous or high profile charities, but it provides a vital roll in helping young people through initiatives such as peer mentoring, training and generally helping youngsters through the many pitfalls and problems that they face transitioning from teenagers to adults. Please check out www.ukyouth.org for more info.

I personally believe that a lot of society's problems can be put down to the lack of understanding and interaction between generations.  So instead of moaning about hoodies and kids playing their music too loud, give your money to me so that we can get them doing something useful.

Thanks

Chris
