I am going to be running the London Landmarks Half Marathon on April 7th 2024!! As you will all know this will be a massive challenge for me as I am not a runner by any means, but I’m going to give it my best shot and hopefully raise some money for a lovely charity along the way 🤍

Growing Hope offers free therapy for children and young people with additional needs in partnership with local churches across the UK. Growing Hope Brockley serves children and families in Southwark and Lewisham. They bring hope to children through free therapy services. They grow hope for families where hope has been lost due to isolation or rejection. They share hope in Jesus because he brings hope even in the most difficult situations.  

Growing Hope provides a range of therapies including occupational therapy, physiotherapy, speech and language therapy and music therapy to help children and young people reach their potential. They also provide support for parents, carers and siblings through groups and courses.

Research suggests that families aren’t getting the support they need on the NHS as services are currently stretched. Growing Hope aims to bridge the gap by providing support for families who are desperate for help. Each clinic costs £50,000 to run a year and they are entirely dependent on donations and grants. Please give what you can to help transform the lives of children with additional needs and their families.
