Story

Hello! We’re Tom, Jack, Jon, Harry, James, Alec, Rory and Sam. Since the dark times of lockdown #2, we’ve been running together to keep up our spirits and generally give us something (anything!) to do.

Now we're seeking to test our running mettle by attempting to run a relay across the width of a country - that's 220km - in one day!

What are we doing this for?

There are an estimated 136,000 people living in slavery in the UK (Global Slavery Index 2019), which equates to more than two victims for every thousand people in the country. We are raising money for the TRIBE Freedom Foundation, which works to raise awareness of trafficking and support frontline projects to fight modern slavery. (You can find out more here: http://tribefreedomfoundation.com).

Will you help us to support victims of slavery in the UK by donating to our Just Giving page?

Thank you 🙏❤✊
