Story

My next challenge is to run the London Marathon in April! The money raised will go towards the ongoing work of Ilford Salvation Army. There's important stuff that happens there already like the Redbridge Cold Weather Centre (winter nightshelter), Daisychain Toddler Group, English Conversation Club, Coffee morning drop-ins, and employment training - like the job club and the bicycle repair scheme to train former rough sleepers.

The money you give will go to support these things and the development of the premises to make it even more of a resource to the community.

Thank you to everyone who sponsored my running of the British 10k on 8/7/2012 and the Royal Parks Half Marathon on 7/10/2012.  over £2000 was raised which helped us buy pillows, sleeping bags, sleeping bag liners, install a shower, washing machine and tumble dryer for the nightshelter!

Your support makes all the difference!
