My Story

I’m running the London Marathon this year for Rentstart.

Rentstart supports people who are facing or have experienced homelessness, helping them find a safe place to live and rebuild their lives. Having a stable home is something many of us take for granted, but for the people Rentstart works with, it can be the difference between surviving and moving forward.

Training has meant getting out when I would rather not and putting in the miles even when it is uncomfortable. It is a challenge yes of course, but a straightforward one - I just need to run. The work Rentstart does is about helping people deal with challenges that are far less predictable and far more difficult.

Running the marathon is my way of contributing to something bigger. Every mile is for those who need support to get back on their feet and for the work Rentstart does every day to make that possible.

If you can support with a donation, it would mean a lot and can make a real difference. It will help Rentstart continue providing housing, guidance, and a real chance for a fresh start.

Thank you for your support. See you on the start line x
