Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I'm participating in the Wilmslow Running Festival, and I'm running 10K to raise money for the Bare Necessities. This incredible charity is like a food bank, but specifically for toiletries and hygiene essentials. They provide support to local people who can't afford everyday items that many of us take for granted, such as toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant, and shower gel.

Hygiene poverty is a deeply shaming and humiliating experience that makes everyday life an ordeal. No one should have to face such challenges just to maintain their basic cleanliness and dignity.

By supporting this cause, you can make a real difference in the lives of those who are struggling. Your donation will help provide essential hygiene products to those in need, giving them a chance to feel clean and confident again.

I have set a target amount of £200 for this fundraising campaign. Every contribution counts, no matter how big or small. Together, we can help alleviate hygiene poverty and create a more compassionate community.

Please consider making a donation today and join me in making a positive impact on the lives of others.
