Wimbledon 10km and Half Marathon · 19 May 2024 ·

Passionate about transforming young lives Seb’s Foundation was established to foster hope and inclusion, by using the power and positivity of sport and education to remove barriers and enable young people from socially disadvantaged backgrounds to fulfil their ambitions and flourish. By providing scholarships, rugby training programmes, as well as workshops to develop mental health and self-esteem to young people who wouldn’t usually have access to them, our aspiration is to see them develop and thrive. Our aim is to provide opportunities, open new horizons and nurture aspirations that would otherwise have been closed to them and beyond their reach. Children in poverty have to fight harder for their futures. It has serious implications for their academic attainment, their social networks and their mental health. Our work is rooted in investing in those futures. Seb’s Foundation was formed following the death of a young man of 20 years old who had a passion for rugby. It was created to bring hope to others from the tragedy of his death, to provide for other young people the opportunities that he was fortunate to enjoy.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Seb's Foundation is our House Charity at my School and the challenge of a half-marathon seems a great way to support this important cause. All money raised will support the charity's work in supporting young people's mental health, through mental health first aid training and encouraging young people to talk about their mental health.

I have not run this distance before, any donations are much appreciated and a motivation to keep me running to the end. Thank you.
