To raise funds for the Rebecca Dykes Foundation (RDF), over 100 of her friends and family are running the Great North Run in just less than a month's time.

Many of you will have met Becky and will know how passionate she was about her work.  She gave a lot professionally and personally to finding ways to make a better life for many living in challenging contexts.  The RDF has been set up to continue her important work.  The first project is underway and is a collaboration with Christian Aid and local women's NGO KAFA with an aim to protect victim of sexual and gender based violence, working with Lebanese and Syrian women.  Further funding will allow work to continue to improve gender equality - countering the pressures and disadvantages faced by vulnerable women and girls.

Becky was one of my most caring and fun loving friends, any support will be really appreciated.  She would be amazed at all the love so far!
