A marathon has always been on my list but I’ve never plucked up the courage... until now.

I’ve always thought that I’d raise money for Shelter if I did a marathon, for several reasons. A place to call home is something everyone should have a right to, but too few do. Shelter have provided me excellent support and advice as a renter, and their campaigning work is top notch, pushing for change across our complex housing system.
