London Marathon 2018 · 22 April 2018 ·

We help young people, children and families facing homelessness and poverty in Westminster. We know the strongest predictor of adult homelessness is childhood poverty. That's why our work starts with children and young people. Ending homelessness tomorrow begins with what we do for children today.

Story

I am running the marathon next month to raise money for The
Cardinal Hume Centre, a charity which is committed to tackle poverty and prevent homelessness. 

It’s a small but powerful organisation, based in the heart of Westminster. Each year it helps hundreds of people in desperate need to turn their lives around.

After becoming homeless Oliver found a home at the Cardinal Hume Centre , which provides accommodation and support for some of the vulnerable 16-25 year olds in London. 

Read Oliver's story www.cardinalhumecentre.org.uk/2016/09/olivers-story/

Before coming to the charity, he had nowhere to live. He ended up sleeping in a friend’s van to stay off the streets, while trying desperately to hold down a job.

Young people like Oliver come to the Centre with very little, so
your donation can mean so much…

  • 50p per mile - £13 can pay for a residents travel to college for a week

  • £1 per mile - £26 can pay for a kitchen 'starter pack' so a young homeless person can learn to cook when they move into our hostel
  • £2 per mile - £52 can pay for bedding and towels for when they move into their new room.

Please help me to raise funds for the Cardinal Hume Centre as I
take on my biggest ever challenge. Please sponsor me here or by texting HUME65 and the amount you would like to donate to 70070

Thank you so much!
