Thanks for taking the time to visit our just giving page. None of us have ever run as far as a half marathon before, this will be an undertaking! As well as making us all fit and very attractive we're using this as an opportunity to raise money for the completely brilliant Shelter from the Storm.

Shelter from the Storm is a completely free emergency night shelter providing bed, dinner and breakfast for up to 44 homeless people every night of the year.

Established in 2007 as a response to the increasing levels of homelessness and destitution on the streets of London, our mission is to house and support the homeless in London whoever they are.

At Shelter from the Storm we do not waste time and energy worrying about whose responsibility someone is or who’s going to pick up the tab … we will. Because we raise all our own money without a penny from the Government we can and do receive guests from anywhere; from the Probation Service to the Red Cross, from Guildford to Ghana, regardless of their access to funding. We have guests who are fleeing torture, forced marriage, honour crime, trafficking for work or sex and plenty who have just fallen through the cracks of our society.   Whether it’s an ex squaddie with post traumatic stress compounded by alcoholism, a domestic worker kept in slavery or a young person thrown out by their family for being gay, our volunteers care for each guest as an individual.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
