Story

Hello hello

I'm running my first ever marathon, and I'm doing it for CENTREPOINT, The official Arsenal Charity of 2011.

Some of you might know I'm an Arsenal fan (Might have mentioned it once or twice), and because of our mildly successful "The Tuesday Club" football podcast, I've been given the chance to run on behalf of this amazing charity.  

It's really very far so please dig as deep as you can. Anything from £1 to £1000 will be received with the same thanks and enthusiasm, and I promise to RUN the whole damn thing. 

If you're unaware of the great work Centrepoint do here's a summary. 

 

Centrepoint is the national charity that supports and campaigns for homeless young people.  We offer a range of safe accommodation from emergency night shelters through to supported independent flats and specialist mother and baby services.  Our services help young people address the issues that led them to become homeless and offer the chance to turn things around with counselling, accredited education programmes, life skills courses such as cooking and budgeting, and opportunities to work.”
