Homeless Oxfordshire is a charity working to provide stability, safety and support to those who are homeless in the area. The charity provides a warm space at their hostel for anyone in need and offers a specialist range of support services to help to rebuild lives that have been shaped by trauma and disadvantage. Their ultimate aim is to support those they care for in their journey out of homelessness.
Helen & Douglas House is a warm, homely place for local children living with life-limiting and terminal conditions, and their families. Our donations will go towards their many projects including the ‘Play Team’, which gives the children the chance to socialise and create special memories with their loved ones.
The Oxford Children’s Hospital Charity funds specialist medical equipment for the Oxford Children’s Hospital, a hospital built around the needs of children and their families. Recent donations have funded patient monitor systems across all hospital areas in the Trust, microbiology equipment to quickly diagnose meningitis in just two hours (rather than two days), and new parents’ accommodation. Our contributions will help to provide support packs for relatives of the children, and outpatient signage artwork to help create a more calming environment.
With huge thanks, in advance, for all your support. We look forward to seeing many of you on Upper 1, cheering on the runners on September 26th.
