Run for Refugees: Monthly Half Marathons in 2021 · 1 January 2021

STAR is the national movement of students welcoming refugees to the UK. Together we volunteer to support refugees in the community; campaign to change policy; improve access to university for refugees; educate people about asylum in the UK. We rely on the generous support of donors to do this work.

Story

The Why?
At a time when the pandemic forces us to stay in our homes to keep safe, my brother, Sam, and I are running for refugees who are forced to flee their homes to keep safe from war, persecution, or natural disaster. 
The Charity.
Student Action for Refugees is a fantastic charity I was lucky enough to be involved with at university. Focussing on volunteering, campaigning and educating, STAR is a student-based, positive force for good in the fight to help refugees in the U.K.
The Run.
Sam and I will be running twelve half-marathon runs throughout the year, completing the distance in one go and recording it on Strava (Profile: JacobColman). All running will be done in accordance with coronavirus guidelines.
