The Challenge:
Raise as much money as possible for Haircuts4Homeless by taking on the 2026 London Marathon, hopefully all still speaking to each other at the end...
The Charity:
Haircuts4Homeless the registered charity set up by veteran hairdresser Stewart Roberts. Stewart has built a whole community of skilled hairdresser volunteers who give their time free of charge to give haircuts for homeless people across the UK.
Homeless people have many challenges to face, one of them often being a low self-esteem. A haircut can have a great effect on someone, giving them a real boost. It’s often way down on a homeless persons priorities with what lack of money so the service proves to be very popular.
One of people’s basic rights is for them to feel good about themselves and this service can give that to people. It may be "just a haircut", but it's the kindness shown that makes a homeless person know that people really care.
The Why:
EMB have supported Haircuts4Homeless since it's inception 10 years ago and are committed to providing ongoing support to Stewart and the team to enable their good work to continue. This is the first year the charity has managed to secure placed for the London Marathon so we were honoured to be offered the opportunity to run it in their name.
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.
