Story
I'm running the Truro Half Marathon in September to raise money for the Dracaena Centre, specifically for the Youth Team and activities for children and young people with trauma during 1:1 sessions.
Having come through the Refresh programme, which supports young people with building confidence, upskillling and finding work, I've experienced the vital, transformative, and life-changing work that the Centre, and its wonderful staff, do for the local community. I went on to both volunteer and work at the Centre, and I was supported every step of the way.
It was whilst volunteering on reception that I got to see the fantasic work that the Youth Team does with children and young people. They provide a range of activites and support, the majority of which are completely free.
All donations will go directly to the Centre and towards funding activities for children and young people with trauma during 1:1 sessions. These are tailored to support the individual, and make a big difference to the lives of those impacted by trauma.
This will be my first Half Marathon, and I'm really looking forward to it!
Thank you for taking to time to check out my page, any and all donations will make a difference.
