I couldn't run for the bus a year ago. But now, urged on by my pal Kate, and starting with 30 second runs and the 'Couch to 5k' app, and finally by motivating ourselves to raise money for a great organisation, we can (hopefully!) do 10km. It may not seem much to hardier runners, but to me it's a mid-life miracle! 

So I'm asking friends to encourage me to the finish line in order to give young people support, training, facilities and experience in creating, performing or producing (music, circus, spoken word, broadcast, theatre, dance and much more). Many of the young people the Roundhouse works with through the amazing Roundhouse Studios might otherwise never benefit from this access and opportunity. I especially hope that anyone who has had the privilege of working in or with the creative industries and arts could give something to help someone else develop their potential. I know the work of the Roundhouse well, and can promise that every pound you can generously give can make a difference to a young person's future.

Thank you.
