Hi all! I'm Chris and I work as a Communications Officer for the Vegetarian Society. I'm currently training to run a half marathon (13.1 miles) at this year's Great Manchester Run and am looking to raise a minimum of £300 for the Vegetarian Society.

The Vegetarian Society is a campaigning charity bringing the benefits of vegetarian and vegan eating to all. It campaigns to bring about changes in our food system. Change that helps people. Change that helps animals. And change that helps the planet.

Donations support the charity's work to help thousands of people discover a healthy vegetarian lifestyle, through providing food boxes to people experiencing food poverty, teaching vegetarian cookery via our recipes and community classes, and shaping vegetarianism in the UK and further afield.

I''m proud to be one of several runners set to represent the Vegetarian Society at the Great Manchester Run and hope you will support me and the charity's work. Thank you in advance!
