On Sunday 11 October 2026, a fantastic group of Breaking Barriers supporters will take on the Oysho Royal Parks Half Marathon to help refugees find meaningful employment.

Our team will attempt to run a total of over 90 miles to raise funds and awareness and help refugees overcome the hurdles they face to finding work in the UK.

Refugees bring a wealth of talent, experience and new perspectives that can strengthen their new communities and employers. But they often face an up-hill struggle to secure a job - because of language barriers or non-recognition of their qualifications, a lack of knowledge of the UK job market or professional network, and even discrimination.

Our Royal Parks runners are helping Breaking Barriers to provide the employment guidance, language and re-accreditation support, and workplace opportunities that will help refugees to beat these challenges.

Any donation you can make will spur our runners on, and help people who've faced the unimaginable to build new lives. Thank you!
