Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've been running regularly over the last year and although I'm not the fastest, Im excited to take part in a proper organised event rather than the roads in Croydon! I'm really proud of the journey I've been on this year - going from being out of breath walking up a few flights of stairs to being able to run comfortably and not be embarrassed is a massive shift for me! 

I wanted to raise money for Croydon Refugee Centre as I know they do a fantastic job in the local community and despite being based within one of the poorest local authority areas, volunteers still try to help those who are at a really vulnerable point in their lives. 

Lots of love to you all and thankyou for donating!
