Hello!

So, I'm doing two events for my charity, Aspire, in October and I need your support! Oh, and your donations please too.

First off, I'm donning my running shoes and vest to run the Oxford half marathon on 9th October (check out our lovely purple Aspire vests! See photo..). I haven't run any long distance in 4 years, so this will be quite a challenge for me.

As if that's not enough to encourage you to part ways with your pounds, I'm also going to sleep out for one night at the end of October with nothing but a sheet of cardboard and a sleeping bag for warmth. 

It's part of our 'Big Sleepout' event to raise awareness of the fast rising numbers of homeless people in Oxfordshire, at the same time as unprecedented cuts are about to decimate our homeless pathway services, of up to 65%. Difficult times, which would make your donation and support all the more meaningful so we can continue to change many more lives. 

Thanks for your support.
