Story

Thank you so much for checking out my JustGiving page.  I'm excited (and daunted!) to be attempting a second half marathon on 17th October to raise money for an amazing local charity - ACT Oxford.  Volunteering with them a little during lockdown, I saw the massive difference they make to the most vulnerable in Oxford - men like J. in the photo.  I met him (and Patches the dog) when he came for free hot meals from ACT after his Big Issue donations stopped almost overnight in the pandemic.

£10 buys a food parcel for a resident in one of the ACT houses

£75 would fund one person's place on their annual retreat - for some the first holiday they have ever been on.

I'd love to raise £450 to pay for six places!  Thank you in advance for any pennies or pounds you can give towards this.  It will be a massive motivator for me as I do the last ten days of training and will bless the ACT community a lot.  THANK YOU!
