Story
Hannah's lovely hubby is changing the world through his work on Corporate Social Responsibility and his company's first major event is the HCC100. This is an organised 25/50/100 km walk/run along the Thames Path. Saloni and I are walking 50km (each) to raise money for Body & Soul.
This charity helps approximately 4,500 children, teenagers, adults and families living with and affected by HIV. The charity creates a safe community in which it is possible to help those individuals who have experienced severe trauma in addition to issues associated with their HIV diagnosis. In this respect, Body & Soul goes far beyond dealing with HIV-related matters, running expert programmes that cover very real gaps in our health and social services – in particular, areas such as mental wellbeing, adoption, special needs, employment, housing, etc. The philosophy of this charity is one that focuses on providing an environment promoting opportunities and aspirations amongst the young.
This wonderful, well-organised and focused charity is not large and every penny raised will make a real difference to the services that they can provide to their members.
