Running to help Citizens Advice Mid Lincolnshire
We're thrilled to announce that three of us will be taking on the challenge of running the Boston Marathon - all in support of Citizens Advice Mid Lincolnshire (CAML)
Every day Citizens Advice Mid Lincolnshire provides free, impartial and confidential advice to people facing financial struggles, housing issues, employment challenges and so much more. In times of uncertaintly, we are here to help individuals and families find solutions, access their rights and regain stability. However, as a charity, we rely heavily on fundraising and donations to continue offering these vital services. That's why we're lacing up our running shoes and hitting the road - to raise funds that will directly support people in our community.
During 2024 we assisted 5577 clients with 36,005 issues and we believe that the number of clients requiring our assistance will continue to increase into the next year. Many of our clients are struggling to pay for basic necessities and have found themselves with a defi cit budget as their income does not cover household bills and essential spending. Many of our clients have nowhere else to go for advice. Without our support they will fall further behind with essential payments resulting in destitution. This is why our service is so important at this critical time.
Your donation can help us:
- Provide emergency support to those struggling with debt, benefits, and legal issues
- Offer face-to-face, phone and digital advice to reach even more people in need.
- Continue advocating for fairness on behalf of our clients through our research and campaigns work.
We've been training hard, and whilst nearly 26 miles is no easy feat, knowing we're running for such an important cause will keep us going every step of the way.
Please donate whatever you can - every pound makes a difference.
It costs £2301 to run our service per day and any donation helps us. Your donation will go towards everything from essential equipment to arranging community information events.
If you're unable to donate, sharing our gofundme page with friends, family and colleagues would mean the world to us.
Thank you so much for your support - it will help us continue to make a real difference to people's lives.
