Story

I'm really pleased to be taking part in the Hackney Half Marathon this May, and once again raising money for the fantastic team at Refuge.

Almost 1 in 4 women will experience some form of domestic abuse in her lifetime. Refuge empowers women and their children to rebuild their lives, free from abuse and fear.

Just £15 could go towards essentials for a woman's first night at a refuge.

I've not run a half marathon properly before - so any and all donations will help me in my efforts!

In addition to the Half Marathon, I'm also teaming up with The London Art Bar to run a Barbie (2023) Movie Night on 8 March 2024 (International Women's Day). Get your tickets here and join us on the night!

Thank you for all your support!
