Hello!

I am hopeless so have left this very late, but on Sunday 23rd March 2025, I'm running the Sheffield Half Marathon in aid of Haven, to raise money to make a difference to the lives of children affected by domestic abuse.

In Sheffield, it's estimated that over 23,000 children are living in householders where domestic abuse is present, which can have a huge impact on children and young people.

Haven strongly believes that all children should be safe, supported and empowered and wants to break down barriers, intervene early, and provide the necessary support guided by a trauma informed and child-centred approach.

Just a sense of what your extremely kind and generous donations may be able to provide:

 £50 will provide a 1:1 therapeutic session with a specialist practitioner

 £30 will buy a child a 'Haven Welcome Pack' and games/stationary for them to use in their support sessions

 £20 will pay for a child to attend a fun activity day with their family, creating positive memories

 £10 will buy a child a worry monster or other wellbeing items to support their recovery

 £5 will pay for the travel costs for a child to attend a session

Thank you all so much in advance.
