Half Marathon for Frontline - Top Donor Chooses What I Wear

Joe Ellefsen is raising money for Frontline

Hackney Half Marathon 2026 · 17 May 2026 ·

Take on the Hackney Half Marathon and help Frontline continue our work towards positive social change, excellent social work practice, and making life better for children at risk of harm.

Story

Come May, my challenge is to complete the Hackney Half Marathon in 90 minutes maximum!

I have the privilege of running this for Frontline. They are a charity passionate about making life better for children at risk of harm, by transforming the children's social work system.

When we're young, the adults around us shape who we become. In some of the most important and challenging times for children, the social workers Frontline develops, are some of those adults.

The right support at the right time can change a child’s future.

Any contribution — big or small — means better social workers, higher quality support for families and more children kept safe from harm.

If I hit my fundraising target before the race, the top donor gets to pick something silly I wear in the race - nothing is out of bounds!
