We Support children living in poverty to help them through crises situations

Story

All of you know who know me have heard me saying :" I would only run if there was a ball involved". That running was boring or as we say in Spain only cowards run.

Truth is that through quite intense training and the help of my friend Darren, I have learnt to respect this discipline, the effort that it involves, and the sacrifices involved, but more importantly the beauty within it and now I think I am ready.

When we were lucky enough to get a space at NY marathon as a charity, I never thought I would be the runner, it was not on my plans but everything happens for a reason so here I am.

47% of children in several London boroughs live on poverty conditions, they lack a fresh meal a day and, in many cases, cannot cover their most basic needs once they are out of school.

Miracles the charity via Feed London try to provide for those needs.

Miracles is a UK children’s charity supporting families living in poverty and helping them through crisis situations such as serious illness. We work with referral agencies such as children's hospitals (Great Ormond Street, Royal Marsden and the Homerton), charities like CLIC Sargent, social workers, schools, Citizens Advice and women’s refuges. We offer a 24-hour rapid response so that our support is there when families need it – when it can really make a difference. We offer three support programmes: - Crisis funding – 24-hour turnaround – practical and rapid support for families who have no one else to turn to. ​Mainly for families with children in hospital – we help with travel, accommodation, washing machines, fridges, cookers, bedding and everything else to help get them through the crises and out the other side. - Respite breaks – for families with children recovering from or undergoing treatment for serious illness. A break can make all the difference in recovery helping to bring the family back together after a traumatic prognoses and long treatment regime. - Feed London – our response to the crippling food poverty crises in London – we delivering essential food boxes stuffed with enough ingredients for 6+ meals, recipes, supermarket vouchers and creative kits for children – all at the start of the school holidays when hunger is at its worst.
