Story

Hoares Bank has put together a team of runners to participate in various events this autumn, to raise money for ThinkForward, one of our corporate charities. ThinkForward operates in the 20% most deprived communities in England, working with schools to identify the most at-risk young people between the age of 13-18. Mentors then support them for five years through their transition from high school to employment or college. Amazingly, over half of ThinkForward graduates go into jobs and over a third go onto further education or training. We see it as an incredibly effective way of reducing inequalities.

As one of the team of 4, I will be running the Royal Parks Half Marathon on 10th October with the aim of raising at least £1000 for this fantastic cause. 

Please donate and thanks so much in advance for all of your support!​​​​​​
