Team Promise x London Marathon

Team Promise are running the London Marathon Scott, Tom, Karin, Rox, Hope, and Elliot have been training for the London Marathon for the past few months, all in support of Barnardo’s. If you haven’t heard of them, Barnardo’s is an amazing charity that works tirelessly to support children all across the UK, offering them hope, opportunities, and a chance for a better future. Knowing the incredible work they do, team Promise are determined to do our part in supporting their cause.

Preparing for a marathon is hard work. There has been multiple early morning runs, hilly half marathon, gruelling training sessions, and the occasional injury tested our dedication every step of the way. But here’s the thing – we weren’t in it alone. Our team became our rock, supporting and encouraging each other through every challenge. It’s true what they say, there’s strength in numbers, and our bond made all the difference.

In addition to our training, we also took on the task of fundraising for Barnardo’s. We have fundraised in different ways, but one that really stands out was our auction event. Through the generosity of our friends, family, and amazing customers, we managed to raise an incredible £10,000! Just thinking about the impact that money will have on children’s lives is truly humbling.

Crossing the finish line of the London Marathon won’t just be a physical accomplishment, it will be a testament to the power of teamwork, dedication, and compassion. Through our journey, we’ve come to realise that it’s not about the miles we run or the funds we raise – it’s about the lives we will change and the difference we will make together.

So, to everyone who supported throughout our journey so far, whether through donations, words of encouragement, or simply cheering us on from the sidelines, thank you.

Your support has been invaluable, and we couldn’t have done it without you. Together, we’ve shown that when we come together for a common cause, there’s no limit to what we can achieve.
