Hi all!
We have decided to set ourselves the challenge of collectively running 100 miles in January in order to support the charity Fresh Start. If you know us, you know this is truly a challenge to complete.
A household becomes homeless in Scotland every 17 minutes. After spending nearly 4 years in Edinburgh we wanted to donate to a local charity that truly makes a difference for those in need, especially during these unprecedented times and the crippling effects of Covid-19.
Fresh Start provides support for individuals and families transitioning from homelessness to building themselves a stable life and equipping them with long term skills. We would appreciate any donations big or small as it all makes a difference - Thank you in advance!
More about Fresh Start...
The experience of being homeless can have a devastating effect. Fresh Start help those who have been homeless settle into a new home and back into their community. We do this by providing Starter Packs of everyday household goods, a Hit Squad which will help decorate up to two rooms, and an opportunity to attend cooking classes and work in one of our community Growing Spaces. Our Services help people get their life back on track, enabling them to make a home for themselves.
