Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I had the privilege of getting a place in my first ever (& perhaps last) marathon and wanted to support a local charity with a cause that is close to my heart & incredibly deserving. My family & I have visited & donated to Share Shop since it arrived in Chester & during its infancy I'm both horrified & saddened to see the vast increase in homelessness throughout the city. 

I can't begin to imagine the feeling of complete isolation, desperation & fear of not having the most basic of human needs. A safe place to sleep at night. A place to call home.

Then to Shares vital support of refugees everywhere. To live in a country that is so dangerous the only option is to flee by any means, in the hope of making it safely to somewhere where people will open their door & heart & offer support in helping rebuild lives.
