I am running the wall in solidarity with Gaza and to raise funds for Amos Trust's emergency Gaza appeal. 

The population in Gaza is experiencing a humanitarian disaster. The bombardment of Gaza has led to untold deaths, injuries and displaced people. Israel’s decision to implement a ‘total siege’, halting all fuel, food, water and medicine to the entire population of Gaza is having unimaginable consequences.

This is a population that bears no responsibility for Hamas’s awful attack that left so many Israelis dead and is already reeling from 17 years of blockade. Families are facing critical shortages of food and water and major sanitation problems. Many are trapped in their homes, with nowhere to flee.
