Kate and Tilly are running the Paris Marathon on Sunday 3rd April 2022. In light of recent events, we want to raise money to help those in Ukraine and so are supporting the British Red Cross Ukraine Crisis Appeal.

We have paid our marathon entry and so have no target, however any and all donations would be amazing and will keep us inspired and motivated during our run!

See below for details on the Ukraine crisis appeal:

Following the events in Ukraine, we have launched an emergency appeal.

Communities are bearing the brunt of eight long years of conflict. We are very concerned about the recent intensification of fighting in eastern Ukraine over the past few days.

Please donate today if you can.

Even before recent developments, this is a conflict that hits people daily on personal, psychological and emotional level, bringing death, injury, separation from loved ones as well as the huge mental toll of ongoing violence and insecurity.

How will my donation help people in Ukraine?

We are responding to needs of people by:

Repairing vital infrastructure such as water stations supplying water to over 800,000 people.
Supporting small businesses with cash grants or equipment and vocational training.
Raising awareness of mines through training and educational sessions run with the URCS and providing mine warning signs to mark dangerous areas.
Helping repair homes, healthcare centers, schools an
