Fundraising for Daisyhouse

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We have decided to support Daisyhouse again this year, the second time that we have done the Women's Mini Marathon together. Well, we still have last year's t-shirts, so why not... And, maybe this year the weather will be a little kinder to us!

We have done a couple of other fundraising events for Daisyhouse since the last Mini Marathon, including helping with a church gate collection one Sunday. I've also participated in a couple of fundraising activities for Daisyhouse with my Liberties Press/Liberties Upstairs hat on.

Anyway, we will be hoping to raise a decent sum and also to beat last year's race timings for the 10k!

Thanks for any support you feel able to give.

About the charity

Daisyhouse

People become homeless for a variety of reasons including addiction, domestic violence, abuse, ill health, relationship breakdown or loss of income. When this happens, they need a ‘space’ where they can recover from the trauma of their experience, feel safe and secure and, in time, move forward in their personal development and lives. Daisyhouse provides such a space. Daisyhouse service users are: • Empowered to do more for themselves • Encouraged to examine and address the issues which may have contributed to their homelessness • Helped to develop their capacity to live independently in the future so that when they are housed on a long-term basis, they will need little or no support Funding: Daisyhouse Housing Association receives no Government Funds. The Daisyhouse operational costs are covered by the nominal rents that are paid by residents and tenants. We are dependent on donations from the public to fund programmes for residents and expand our service reach.
