Fundraising for Justlife
Story
I will be running the Brighton marathon on 9th April 2017 in support of the Justlife Charity.
Justlife Brighton works to ensure people’s experience in emergency or temporary accommodation is short, safe and healthy as possible.
In December 2016 it was reported that 1 in 69 people in Brighton and Hove is homeless. This is a shocking statistic, highlighting a desperate problem that is affecting more and more people today. The Justlife charity does amazing work to combat this growing problem (and I can personally say it's run by a great team of people).
I really wanted to support this work so I decided to run a few miles around Brighton in an attempt to raise some sponsorship. Anything you can give towards this worthy cause would be greatly appreciated.
