Isaac will be running the Birmingham Running Festival Half Marathon the 10th of May as part of a wider group effort within the Bristol Downs league initiative supporting the Aid Box community.

Any support will be greatly supported and please share the page as well to enable us to gain as much traction as possible.

Why the Aid Box Community (ABC)?

Aid Box Community provides support, supplies and sanctuary to refugees and people seeking asylum arriving or living in Bristol and surrounding areas.

ABC’s Welcome Hub and Free Shop is open 5 days a week and is a place that refugees and people seeking asylum can use to choose the essential items they need: clothes, toiletries, household items, etc. Importantly, the Free shop provides choice, just like any other shop, so that people can reflect their identity and feel a sense of self-worth, dignity and pride.  

They also offer refugees and people seeking asylum multiple opportunities for social interactions through volunteering opportunities, a befriending service, and an activity programme that aims to reduce isolation and loneliness, improving people's mental and physical well-being, encouraging integration within the local community, and creating belonging.
