Lancaster Half Marathon · 3 November 2024

Having experienced the distressing scenes of refugees arriving on the shores of the Greek islands, who are subsequently not able to travel further due to border closures and are left totally reliant on charity for clothing and food, we have built a team of volunteers who are working with local, national and international voluntary organisations to safely and swiftly provide life saving aid for those who have lost everything and now have little to call their own.

Story

Hiya!

On Sunday 3rd November, I'm going to running the Lancaster Half Marathon! I've never ran this far so it'll be a tough ask, but a worthwhile one I hope!

I'm fundraising for the Ripple Effect, a Lancaster based charity supporting people arriving in Europe, predominantly in Greece, who have been displaced through conflict.

Your donations will help pay to ship good quality clothing, sleeping bags and blankets etc to those in desperate need living in refugee camps.

I will also be donating some clothing, so let me know if you'd like to donate some clothing/blankets/sleeping bags and I'll pass them onto the charity! Pre-loved, quality clothing, shoes, blankets, sleeping bags, rucksacks are in great need if you have any spare! (underwear and socks are not accepted).

Any donation, however small would be massively appreciated by me, The Ripple Effect, and I'm sure by those in need. Even if it's just £1, or a share, would be wonderful.

Thank you so much!

Scott.
