Leeds Half Marathon for Joanna Project

I'm going to be running the Leeds Half Marathon with 3 weeks notice, all in aid of the Joanna Project. I may be crazy, as I’ve never run that far before (so this will definitely be a huge challenge!) But to make it all worthwhile I’m raising money for a fantastic charity!

The Joanna Project are a wonderful Leeds-based non-profit organisation supporting vulnerable women with multiple disadvantages: trapped by addictions and often in street sex work. They provide a safe place and a physical refuge for these women, providing love, dignity and grace. They also have an evening team, made up by volunteers who go out two or three times a week offering hot drinks, food and condoms, building relationships and encouraging women to access help in the daytime. They provide practical and emotional advice.

So if you’d like to fund a fantastic charity and take pleasure in the pain I’ll have over the next few weeks of training, please do donate to The Joanna Project!

I’ve also decided that if we reach my fundraising goal of £300 I’ll match that with an extra £100 out of my own pocket - so consider it an extra donation from you!

Do you want to join me in making a difference? Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me. Find out more about the Joanna Project here: https://joannaproject.co.uk/
