I'm running the London Marathon for JRS UK!

George Kent is raising money for Jesuit Refugee Service

London Marathon 2025 · 27 April 2025 ·

Team JRS UK is taking on the London Marathon 2025 to raise vital funds for our work accompanying, serving and advocating for the rights of refugees!

Story

I'm very excited to be running the London Marathon 2025 to support refugees, by raising funds for the work of JRS UK!

Having had the most amazing experience travelling the world and working with refugees in Calais, I feel passionate about helping those who have been displaced.

People who have been forced to flee their homes and seek sanctuary in the UK are often faced with destitution and hostility. This has been very evident at the end of 2024 with refugees being targeted during the riots on the streets of the UK.

I do hope that you will be able to sponsor me and help those less fortunate. It will be a big challenge and a great test for the new ACL!!

Thank you in advance for your support and I will keep my page updated with training progress.
