Story

I've always taken the easy option in life but I suppose the London Marathon 2016 is a true test to see if I can put YOUR money where MY mouth is and actually achieve something significant. 

I can not begin to imagine what it's like to suffer from addiction, poverty or social isolation and end up sleeping rough on the streets of London, but we are all closer than we think to these men and women, so many of us pass by everyday.

SCT is a local charity I assist that helps provide support and training to people who have been homeless through addiction; I hope you can join with me to give what you can to this fantastic charity. 

Thank you all in advance!
