Cambridge Half Marathon · 8 March 2020

The Girls’ Network aims to inspire & empower girls aged 14 to 19 from the least advantaged communities by connecting them to a mentor & a network of professional female role models. We support around 1000 girls a year in London, Merseyside, Hampshire, Sussex, the North East & the West Midlands.

Story

Its been a rocky road to CHM 2020, last year I had to pull out due to a recurring running injury. So this time around I've put in a lot of early mornings building strength and trying harder than ever to stick to rehab routines. Today is the day to find out if it has paid off!


Please take some time to read about the Girls' Network and their awesome work supporting young girls and young women to gain important experience of the world of work, pairing successful mentors with aspirational students. The world of work is still very far from balanced and equal with gender being just one example of a factor that can skew the opportunities, status and pay that a person receives during their career.

Donating to this cause is possibly the best value donation you'll give all year because my employer will match every amount donated. You give £10, the Girl's Network gets £20 to provide networking and mentorship support for girls and young women.

Thanks for reading!
