My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am so nervous about running 13 miles! I would love it if you would sponsor me and help raise money for the amazing work of the Anne Frank Trust UK and the Hackney Migrant Centre.  

Hackney Migrant Centre

Hackney Migrant Centre is a charity aimed at supporting refugees, asylum seekers and other migrants. At HMC's weekly drop-in migrants can receive free advice on immigration, welfare/housing and help in accessing NHS services. Visitors are also offered a hot meal and a welcoming environment. In the last year, HMC supported 239 visitors and continues to reach out to vulnerable individuals and families.

Charity No: 1122363

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Anne Frank Trust Uk gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!

In the beginning, did I say I was nervous about running 13 miles? Yeah, I had every reason to be. I did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS HARD! It was a hot day and the route was quite hilly. I did it anyway, got a few blisters to show for it, but it was worth every excruciating stride. THANK YOU ALL very much for your kindness, support, and donating to two of my favourite charities who do amazing work for the community. I drew my inspiration from the selfless acts of the people who work for these charities. Will I do it again? You bet!!!!!!! It's the best feeling in the world to do something not to benefit yourself, but others.

I would definitely do it again for the good causes. It was such an experience. Amazing!

Thank you once again for your donations and your very inspiring messages for me. They did keep me going.

Warmest Regards 

Unity
