On Sunday 22nd May, I will be tackling the Hackney Half Marathon (13.1 miles)!

I am fundraising for Harrow Mencap (now called Community Connex), who provide support for people in the local community experiencing social isolation, learning disabilities, autism, mental health problems and more. Harrow Mencap provide a safe space for them to socialise; enjoying activities and becoming more independent (check out their website: https://www.communityconnex.co.uk/).

My dad was a volunteer at Harrow Mencap for many years and became very fond of the community. Over the past year, my mum, aunty and I have been volunteering for the charity, helping to provide lunches and activities for its members.

Thank you so much in advance for donating - it all makes a huge difference :)
