I will be honest...I am massively out of shape and haven't run a 10k in 7 years but...

...On Sunday (13th July) I will be running the London 10k for Welcare. I would be immensely grateful if you could support Welcare by donating towards their work.

What do Welcare do?

Welcare provide practical and emotional support for children and families that face difficult situations due to domestic abuse, parental conflict, mental health, emotional and well-being issues, social isolation or challenges caused by low income and the cost-of-living crisis.

Through early intervention they aim to strengthen families, empower parents, and improve the life chances of children and young people. Welcare's Family Support Workers support families through one-to-one whole family work, targeted groupwork programmes for children and parents, and practical and financial support.
