#TeamReconomy - Running the Chester Half for NHP

Team Reconomy is raising money for NHP
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Chester Half Marathon 2024 · 19 May 2024 ·

The National House Project (NHP) was, and is, co-produced with care-experienced young people to transform the way they leave care and move to independence. When we asked young people what needed to change, they told us leaving care felt isolating and frightening. Having often moved multiple times as children, they wanted stability, choice, and a sense of belonging. Most importantly, they wanted to leave care together - with friends, community and ongoing support. The House Project approach was created in direct response to these needs. Our vision is that every young person leaving care can live a connected, fulfilling and independent life. By joining a Local House Project care-experienced young people get tailored support, develop skills for independence, gain new experiences and friendships, as well as a safe and secure home for as long as they want. Since 2018, more than 800 young people have successfully moved into permanent housing with no tenancy breakdowns or evictions. Many describe gaining “friends for life” and a renewed confidence to pursue education and employment.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

In May 2024, #TeamReconomy are entering into The Chester Half Marathon in support of our charity partner, The National House Project (NHP).

Working with local councils and businesses, NHP runs multiple projects for care leavers across the UK to help them develop a sense of community, fulfilment and interdependence.

All the sponsorship money raised from our runners will be going towards the provision of white goods (fridge/washing machine) for young care leavers moving into their first home.

NHP has been covering this expense but may no longer be able to do so due to rising costs. Providing every young person with the means to wash their clothes and keep food fresh is an absolute essential and we would like to help as many young people as we can!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
