I'm taking on the Social Bite Advent Challenge

I'm taking on the Social Bite Advent Challenge by running 5k every day from the 1st December until the 24th December to support Social Bite's Festival of Kindness.

Social Bite's Festival of Kindness is on a mission to provide 300,000 meals, gifts, and essential items to people who are vulnerable and experiencing homelessness this winter. Additionally, funds raised will support emergency overnight accommodation projects as well. 

I would be grateful if you could support my fundraising efforts with a donation to this page.

A £28 donation could provide a Social Bite 'Christmas of Kindness' which includes a warm Christmas dinner, a Christmas gift, a pack of essential items, and a bed for the night.

Together, we can pass on a message of kindness this winter.

Running…

Tuesday 2nd Dec
If you know me, you know I HATE running. So it’s a big challenge for me to sign up to run (or walk, or cycle) 5k every day in this challenge. I wanted to challenge myself and raise money for a cause that’s really important to me! I’ve been regularly donating to Social Bite for a while now and think they’re such an important charity doing great things in Edinburgh and other places too. It would mean a lot if you would support them, me and my journey to enjoy running by donating to Social Bite, even just a couple of quid! 

Thank you to my Sponsors
