Run Forest Run is going bigger than ever this year with our Expansion Challenge in aid of Joint Aid Management (JAM). We will be challenging ourselves and our community to run the furthest they have ever run before. We will be completing the challenge on a circumnavigation route throughout the 32 boroughs of London in an aim raise funds for JAM. 

This is the 5th consecutive year that Run Forest Run will be raising funds for JAM, and we cannot wait to see the impact it will have.

We have been touched by the amazing work the JAM organisation does on a daily basis to make a tangible difference in thousands of people's lives through their caring and practical approach to help those less fortunate in Africa.

JAM has an aim to empower Africans to create better lives for themselves. JAM wants to transform African communities by developing viable social and commercial enterprise. Their goal is to HELP AFRICA HELP ITSELF, using their Complete Community Development Assistance approach in order to:

1. Save lives through the provision of nutritional food, water and sanitation

2. Sustain lives through health and social programmes such as HIV/Aids training, small holder farmer assistance, basic skills development, nutrition and health education

3. Improve lives through education, technical training and transitional finance

4. Create better lives by providing linkages to sustainable commercial business development
