Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page. On the 6th of March 2026, I will embark on an incredible journey as I attempt to complete the Trans Gran Canaria Classic 126km Ultra-marathon. This challenging race will take me through the breathtaking volcanic mountains of the islands, climbing a ridiculous 6734 meters.

I am raising funds for the School of Hard Knocks, an organisation dedicated to supporting young people aged 11 to 16 in secondary schools across the UK. The stories of our beneficiaries are diverse and heart-wrenching; some may be facing homelessness or living in extreme poverty, while others have endured exploitation or abuse. There is no single story that defines a participant in this program, but they all share a common thread: they navigate complex and challenging circumstances every day.

The mission of the School of Hard Knocks is to empower these young individuals by helping them find purpose and meaning in their lives. Through various programs, we provide them with essential tools to cope with their experiences and build a brighter future.

Thank you.

Bruce
