Hello good people,

My wife Kate, our kiddos Eloise and Henry, and I moved to the United Kingdom in 2018, and this year we're doing something special for our adopted home! I'm going to be running the 2026 Hackney Half Marathon in support of Single Homeless Project, and we'd like your support too.

Each day across all 32 London boroughs, SHP staff work with individuals to tackle the underlying causes of homelessness, such as poor mental health or drug and alcohol dependency.

Often that means being there for people at a critical time whether to prevent their eviction or help them off the street; to get them into drug or alcohol treatment or support them with their mental health; or to help them find a job and a flat so that they can take the final steps to living on their own.

From supporting people in crisis to helping people take the final steps towards independence and employment, SHP makes a difference to 12,000 Londoners every year.
