Hi friends!

As we all know, the horrific atrocities committed against the people of Palestine by Israel demand action. As the IDF continues its brutal campaign of ethnic cleansing in Gaza, innocent civilians continue to be the victims of unimaginable suffering. Homes destroyed, lives lost, livelihood ruined.

Like so many of us, I cannot stand idly by while these crimes against humanity unfold. That's why I've decided to run the Bristol Half Marathon and raise funds for Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF).

The tireless doctors and surgeons of MSF are, once again, on the frontlines of the struggle for justice in Palestine. Despite the constant threats, violence and oppression they’re facing, they’re still fighting, providing lifesaving medical care to the most vulnerable, but they need our help.

I would like to turn my own two feet into funds to heal, shelter, and care for the victims of this massacre that we’ve all been the witnesses of. I hope I can reach out to you to support this critical cause. Any amount will get us closer to the care and justice the Palestinian people and the world so desperately need.

All the money raised will go directly to Médecins sans frontières in their effort to provide care to the people in Gaza.

Palestine will be free.

with love xx
