As someone who does not run more than 10 minutes on a treadmill, I’m running the Town & Gown 10k to raise money for ExVac. ExVac is a charity run by students of Exeter College, Oxford, taking local Oxfordshire children facing difficult times on holiday to the New Forest. These holidays provide the children with an invaluable opportunity to try new things, make new friends and enjoy a life in the countryside.

It goes without saying that the last few years have made life much harder for the children and families ExVac aims to help. The challenges of recent years makes ExVac's work more important than ever, and so we are enormously grateful for any support you are able to provide.

Please donate any amount you can, nothing is too small, and share widely!
