POST RUN UPDATE!
Sunday was a lovely day for Run Reigate, and Team Renewed Hope did us proud! Anri, Terry, Mark, Lee, Cath , Sarah - and not forgetting Theo- all put their best foot forward and completed the distance in fine form. Please scroll through this year's photos above.
Thanks to all the runners, and also thanks to all the volunteers who did a great job promoting Renewed Hope from our gazebo in Priory Park.
Run Reigate was the launch of our fundraising campaign to fund an additional support worker post at Renewed Hope. Our overall target is £15,000, and this weekend has been a great start. So far with sponsorship, raffle ticket sales and donations we have raised over £3,000. More donations and sponsorship would be most welcome , and would directly help those who need it most.
Thankyou for all your support!

On Sunday our brilliant Run Reigate runners will be at the start line in Priory Park . We are proud to have 10 runners, between them covering all the distances from the kids 1.2 mile to the Half Marathon.
They are all setting their own challenge to help Renewed Hope meets it's challenge of helping Homeless and Vulnerable people in East Surrey.
Unfortunately the need is getting bigger every year, and over the last 12 months our volunteers welcomed 311 people through the doors of our Redhill Drop-in and offered 30 street homeless people a bed for the night over the winter months.
At least 173 of these guests were homeless and need our support to help cope with the challenges rough sleeping, and also to try and move off the streets.
We really need to increase our capacity and are fundraising for a second support worker post.
Our work is only possible because of the support from the local community – from individuals and community organisations like yourselves.
Please sponsor Team Renewed Hope this year to help ensure our guests get the support they need.
