On 9 and 10 May, we will be taking on the Junior and the Main Great Bristol Run to raise money for 1625 Independent People, who support young people facing homelessness in Bristol and the South West.

Last year, one young person became homeless approximately every four minutes in the UK. In total, 118,134 young people were homeless or at risk of homelessness, meaning 1 in 62 young people faced housing insecurity in 2023–2024.

1625 works alongside young people at a critical point in their lives, providing safe housing, wellbeing support, and practical help to recover from trauma, build confidence, and move towards independent futures.

Any donation, big or small, will help make sure young people don’t have to face homelessness alone.

Thank you so much for your support.
