Advent 5k a day · 1 December 2025

Kumi Community Foundation supports individuals with disabilities and malnourishment, living in extreme poverty in remote areas of the Ugandan bush. We working with a local team, we enable clients to access medical assessment, treatment, therapy, aids to mobility, education or training and much more.

Story

In February I will be travelling to Kumi Hospital in Uganda with a team of therapists and technicians. We will hold a distribution of wheelchairs, mobility aids and paediatric equipment. The KCF outreach team based in Kumi Hospital will have identified potential clients who desperately need mobility equipment. It’s a huge privilege to be involved in assessing and fitting life changing equipment.

To raise funds for this amazing charity some of my Shrewsbury hockey team mates and I are going to run 5k a day for the 24 days of Advent!
