18 months ago neither Catherine or I could run 5km... but now, in November, we're going to be joining 500 other runners in my first ever Half Marathon! Trail running around a Volcano!! In the Azores!!!  (obvious choice right?!)

Thanks to Running Heroes for giving us both this opportunity and the challenge of a lifetime, and we hope you all support us on our journey through training for this epic trip and help us raise a lot of money for a very deserving cause along the way.

Thanks!

Ben & Catherine.

There are an estimated 136,000 people living in slavery in the UK. Thats more than two victims for every thousand people in the country. This needs to stop.

TRIBE Freedom Foundation was inspired by a 1,000 mile run from Odessa to Dubrovnik to fight human trafficking and establish the first UK home for trafficked children. This was the first Run for Love. Run for Love 3 is the third in the epic RFL trilogy. It will bring over 500 runners together to push the limits of human endurance to fight modern slavery and end human trafficking.Our aim is to raise £250K to raise awareness of trafficking and support the survivors of modern slavery. We are supporting two of the most innovative and impactful frontline anti-slavery projects:

Ellas Home - an East-London safe-house providing rehabilitation, accommodation, and support for women exiting situations of trafficking and exploitation.

Snowdrop - a Sheffield-based charity providing outstanding long-term follow-on support for survivors.
