Four Pillars, the award-winning Grampian LGBT+ charity, are appealing for funds to "Save Our Services" so we can continue to be a welcoming, supportive and safe space to the thousands of people we serve yearly.  

Story

I’m looking for my next running challenge in aims of raising funds and creating awareness for much needed change.

Why?

Four Pillars recently announced a critical loss of funding, which could potentially force life-saving services to shut down in the coming months. This charity holds a special place in my heart. After my first visit earlier this year, I forged numerous friendships within the organisation as they warmly welcomed me. This simple yet heartfelt gesture deeply impacted me and inspired my increased involvement.

Recognising the immense importance of this charity's work in supporting individuals who may lack the confidence to be themselves or are isolated and alone, I have decided to take action. I am embarking to run 100 miles over 10 consecutive days to raise funds and contribute to saving lives in our community.

Your sponsorship for this endeavor would mean the world to me and, more importantly, to Four Pillars. The funds I raise will be directly channeled into supporting our youth group, 4 Teens. This initiative empowers young people to embrace their true selves, make friends in their community, and build the confidence they need to navigate the challenging journey to adulthood. Please join me in making a difference.
