This is the third time I've attempted to do the LLHM, first I was injured, then covid struck and the race got cancelled. Then I had Flora and so finding the time to run for anything longer than 30 mins has been hard to do. But here I am, finally back over the 10k mark and lucky enough to get a ballot place, so lets hope it's third time lucky!
As I got a ballot place I was keen to support a small, local charity that wouldn't otherwise benefit from mass participation fundraising. I've chosen Home-Start - a local charity which supports families in Colchester and South Tendring who are struggling through difficult times.
Anyone can face difficult times in their life, and when you have small children the challenges can often be that much harder. Facing illness, acquiring disability, or experiencing bereavement can affect your life in a big way. Knowing that there is a local charity to visit and support you during these difficult times can make all the difference.
They don't have funds for marketing and promotional staff so don't get the recognition they need to raise lots of funds. Therefore any gift made will make a big difference to the families and children they support.
