I've been running for a few years, but have never run as far as a half marathon all in one go. My church, St Mary's in Henley, has been involved in setting up a debt centre as part of Christians against Poverty. I wanted to help, and thought this might be something I could usefully do.

The debt centre was set up a few months ago, and has already reached its capacity. This fundraising is to pay for another member of staff to help more people who are struggling with money right now.
