On 10 May, our team of runners will be taking on the Great Bristol Run, running either 10km or a half marathon to raise money for 1625 Independent People, supporting young people facing homelessness in Bristol and the South West.

In 2023–2024, one young person became homeless approximately every four minutes in the UK. Last year alone, 118,134 young people were homeless or at risk, with 1 in 62 young people affected.

1625 works alongside young people at a critical point in their lives, providing safe housing, wellbeing support, and practical help to build confidence, recover from trauma, and move towards independent futures.

Every donation helps make sure young people don’t have to face homelessness alone.

Thank you so much for your support 💛
