With Covid-19 resulting in more and more people self-isolating and feeling disconnected, the need for connection has never been greater.
Thats why Im taking part in the #RemoteRelay, taking on a 10k WALK | RUN | CYCLE to raise money for South London Cares.
South London Cares is a community network of younger and older neighbours hanging out and helping one another in our rapidly changing city. They do this because whilst London is a vibrant, fun and exciting place to live, it can be incredibly isolating, lonely and disconnecting.
Throughout COVID-19, South London Cares has been supporting older people by delivering Virtual Social Clubs, creating phone friendships, posting #AloneTogether packs full of daily creative activities and regularly checking in with the most isolated in their network.
On the week of 20th July, Im taking part in South London Cares #RemoteRelay team. Please consider donating to help me keep these vital connections going during this time of uncertainty.
