Story

Hello lovely people!

As you are here, I assume I’ve harped on to you at some point over the last three years (sorry - pandemic!) about me running the London Marathon. 

I will be running for an amazing cause, and I would be SO grateful if you would support me by supporting them.

Time & Talents is a small, community-run charity in Rotherhithe. It was founded by a group of incredible Victorian women who aimed to help girls use their Time and their Talents for the greater good of the local community. 135 years later, the mission at T&T is still pretty much the same: to make sure no one has to feel lonely, isolated or excluded from their community.

I first visited T&T less than six months after moving to London and I can’t think of a place where I have felt more welcome. Everyone involved at T&T is so friendly and really passionate about what we can achieve when we work together. T&T runs free projects for people of all ages. Examples include: kids’ clubs; food donation and distributions; the Shed - bringing people together with gardening and woodwork; a wellbeing hub where people can discuss their mental or physical wellbeing; and a befriending scheme where volunteers visit house-bound elderly people. 

Any donation will be gratefully received. Thank you so much for your support and encouragement.
