This October, Lydia and Simon will be running the Bristol 5k Colour Run to raise money to support Operation Christmas Child - run by Samaritan's Purse.

100% of the money raised will be used to buy gifts to put into the boxes (such as toiletries, games and fun things to play with), and cover the cost incurred by Samaritan's Purse to send them around the world.

We are hoping to be able to raise enough money to pack 500 boxes - a tough ask! So please sponsor generously, and we'll maybe throw in some ridiculous tasks:

If we reach £200: we'll run three-legged

If we reach £300: we'll also both wear piratical eye patches

If we reach £500: we'll run it twice (somehow...)
