We are Ben and Charlie, two 25-year-old men who are thrilled to be running The Big Half Marathon in London in September 2023, all in support of the Single Homeless Project (SHP). We wholeheartedly believe in SHP's mission and are committed to making a positive impact on the lives of homeless individuals in London.

Every day, across all 32 London boroughs, the dedicated staff at SHP work tirelessly alongside individuals to address the underlying causes of homelessness. They provide crucial support to tackle issues such as poor mental health, drug and alcohol dependency, and lack of employment opportunities. We find this work inspiring, and we are honored to be able to contribute to SHP's efforts.

Being there for people during critical moments can be transformative. It could mean preventing eviction, offering guidance through addiction recovery, providing mental health support, or helping individuals secure stable housing and employment opportunities. We understand the significance of these interventions in restoring hope to those who might otherwise feel forgotten or left behind. We firmly believe that everyone deserves a chance to rebuild their lives and create a brighter future.

With your support and donations, we can make a real difference in the lives of vulnerable individuals in London. Your contribution can have a tangible impact, as highlighted by SHP:

- A donation of £10 could provide an emergency parcel for a Londoner coming off the streets, ensuring they have the essential items they need.

- A donation of £25 could fund a one-on-one employability session, helping Londoners find their dream job and leave homelessness behind for good.

By joining us in supporting SHP's fundraising campaign, you become a vital part of our collective effort to make a meaningful change. Together, we can empower individuals experiencing homelessness to build independent and fulfilling lives. Let's restore hope and create lasting transformations in our community.

Additionally, we want to offer a special opportunity to all those who generously donate to our fundraising campaign. As a token of our gratitude, we invite you to add songs to our exclusive Spotify playlist. Music has the power to uplift spirits, inspire, and bring people together, and we would love to create a playlist that represents the collective support we have received.

For a donation of £5, you can add one song of your choice to our playlist. Whether it's a song that motivates you, brings back fond memories, or simply makes you happy, we would be honored to include it. If you're feeling particularly generous, a donation of £10 allows you to add three songs, giving you an opportunity to share even more musical joy with us.

Once our playlist is complete, we will share it with all our donors as a token of our appreciation. It will serve as a reminder of the positive impact we can make when we come together for a worthy cause.

Thank you for your support, and we look forward to grooving to the beats you choose for our special playlist!
