A team of runners - a very loose use of the word due to our current running abilities - from two different MSA sites in the UK have come together to enter a team of 16 into the Bristol Half Marathon on the 14th May. 

We have created this link as a shared page for anyone that would like to support us in raising money for a fantastic local charity called 1625 Independent People.

1625ip work with young people facing homelessness in Bristol and the South West. Last year this charity saw an increase of 30% in new referrals to their services, and a staggering 1,600 more young people presenting as homeless in the UK. Heading out of a global pandemic that saw a dramatic increase in loneliness and isolation, alongside a loss of jobs, those facing homelessness are one of the most vulnerable groups amidst the cost of living crisis, already facing financial hardship. The money we raise will go towards supporting specialist projects and services to empower young people to gain the skills to overcome their trauma, and build the confidence they need to achieve their goals and thrive as independent adults. 

Thank you for being a part of it.
