Story
Hello Everyone & thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
In July I am running my first ever 10k. This is a big thing for me as I DESPISE running, and with that have decided to raise money for the charity Centrepoint.
I’m fortunate (like many of you reading this) to have a roof over my head, food on my plate, a job which I love and many incredible life experiences. No matter how expensive London may get or ‘Broke’ I may claim to be, the truth is that it’s very unlikely that i’ll ever be in a situation where I have no support system & end up on the streets.
Everyday without fail, one witnesses homelessness in London. For whatever reason these people come to their situation I really struggle with the fact that they are on the streets because they have absolutely nothing left and no one to turn to.
Centrepoint is an amazing charity that helps young people between the age of 16-25 suffering from homelessness. Offering accommodation, education, health care and counselling in multipl cities across the UK, Centrepoint gives these young people a safe place and another chance to better their lives and move on from their current situation.
Any donation that you could make would be hugely appreciated! Just £18 gives a young homeless person a room for the night. All of money will go directly to Centrepoint and in turn will help a vulnerable young person in need.
