Feed The Homeless is a grassroots charity that provides frontline homelessness support in Bristol. Their aim is a simple one: "To ensure that they can provide hot nutritious meals to the homeless and rough sleeping community in Bristol." In addition to the essential work of providing hot food each Friday and Sunday, the charity operates a foodbank, which is a life-line to the service users who rely on this for their basic needs.

The charity is very fortunate to be supported by a lovely bunch of volunteers who will cook, prepare and serve food and support the weekly evening services from Champion Square in Bristol, ensuring that the ~250 service users they see each week are helped and receive not only warm food, but a warm welcome too.

As a grassroots charity, fundraising is vital to ensure FTH can continue to operate especially during a cost of living crisis where the weekly essentials are going up (and up!) in price.

So 5 (willing?!?) volunteers have elected to take on the London Landmark's 1/2 Marathon on Sunday 6th April 2025 to both raise awareness and much needed funds. The group made up of 3 of the charity's trustees (Shada, Phil and Dan) along with 2 wonderful regular volunteers (Olivia and Maria) are lacing up their running shoes and taking on this 13.1 mile challenge around some of London's infamous landmarks all with a common goal of raising as much money as possible, and this is where you come in :-).

Please dig deep, search down the back of the sofa, spread the word to friends and family and help us by donating some money to this much needed cause.

Anything you can give will help massively and be hugely appreciated, not only by the team running on the day, but also the homeless community that the money will directly help.

Thank you for reading and thank you for your support

Shada, Phil, Dan, Olivia and Maria xx
