Story

I'm running Blackpool Marathon this April for my Gran - Eve Jones. She passed away last year, but was an ardent and active supporter of Sefton Women's and Children's Aid. I'm running in her memory and in support of a cause she (and I) care about.

In support of this, I will be personally donating 1:1 for every donation made. Meaning if you donate £30 then £60 will end up with SWACA. A good deal all round.

In their own words, what SWACA do is

Sefton Women's and Children's Aid is committed to safeguarding women, young people and children. Our dedicated team supports them in surviving the impact of domestic abuse by giving free, practical and emotional help. Our services are offered regardless of age, disability, sexuality, race or religion. The support we provide can be delivered by phone, in person, in school, in the workplace, in Family Wellbeing Centres or in our Centre.

If we raise £1000, this will

Help resettle a family in desperate need of protection, paying the deposit and rent on a flat or house

An incredible goal to have, I'm sure you'll agree
