Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 27th of July I will be running the Battersea Park half marathon to raise money for the brilliant Second Wave Centre For Youth Arts - a charity that I have been involved with, and have gained so much from over the past 20 years.

Second Wave empowers young people's creativity and activism through engaging young people as performers, writers, lyricists and technicians - developing new productions and youth-led creative outreach projects in the community.

A registered charity, Second Wave has been working with young people and developing new plays for young audiences since 1982. The company has developed the careers of many young writers, performers and educators.

As an independent charity, Second Wave raises income to support an ongoing programme of work with young people.

Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
