Story

A sentence I never thought I'd say... I’M RUNNING THE LONDON MARATHON 😱

The truth is, I never in a million years thought I'd get a place. But here we are. And now I feel a little bit silly really because 26.2 miles is a very, very long way. Running is not something I am especially good at either.

Nonetheless, the amazing team at Young Women's Trust have given me the opportunity to give it a go and raise as much money as possible to support their amazing work. 

So what does Young Women's Trust do?

🧡 Unlock women's potential 

🧡 Smash career stereotypes

🧡 Value women's unpaid work 

🧡 Build equal workplaces

Pretty awesome right? Well if you can part with a bit of your hard-earned cash... firstly you’d be an absolute legend in my eyes but secondly, you’d be helping change young women’s lives. Here’s how:

💸 £25 - would pay for personalised CV feedback for a disadvantaged young woman to give her the best possible chance at a job interview. 

💸💸 £45 - would give a vulnerable young woman one-to-one support/coaching to improve her confidence to get a job.

💸💸💸 £100 - would give 3 disadvantaged young women confidence training to help them perform well in interviews and succeed at work.

💸💸💸💸 £350 - would help cover a young woman’s childcare, enabling her to attend workshops throughout the year.

Oh and by the way, donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity. WINNER.
