So after 7+ years of designing the annual TASTE Fun Run campaign, I'm finally going and taking part in the event myself! It's my first ever 5k run (or indeed event run of any kind since the 100/200 metres at sports day in year 9!) and my lovely mum and sister are also taking part. It's also my mum's first running event. 

We all started doing the Couchto5k app last year, with Sarah Millican cheering us on, and mum finished the 9 week course before me (I'm still on week 6!) and has really got into it. I try and run 2-3 times a week during my lunch hour but at the moment only doing 20mins so 5k is not going to be easy for me... plus its in Sheffield. There's going to be hills!

TASTE is a charity I've been working for as a freelance designer since 2008/09. They are based in Sheffield but work with and support communities in Nigeria, providing clean water supplies and sanitary provisions and education (water wells, toilets, etc). Their work is not easy as many political and dangerous situations get in their way but the work they do is so important to providing basic needs to local communities. It's been a real honour to work with them, and help out.

So, if you have a few pounds to spare and would like to support me, my sis, mum or all three of us, please donate what you can to this great charity. 

Thank you. 

Hannah (plus Nina and Judy).
