🌟 In 2024, YOU can change and save lives. We have invested over £16.5 million into research for the digestive system to date. But we can't stop there. People are still in pain. People are still suffering. Let's make 2024 the biggest year yet for guts! Every walk, bun-sale, raffle or head-shave has the potential to save lives. Fundraising doesn't always mean climbing mountains and running marathons. There are SO many ways you can help the UK get to grips with guts, and make a difference. Stuck for ideas? Here is some inspiration: • Get family and friends together for a raffle, bake sale or quiz night. The power of community is unstoppable! • Swap just one take-out coffee per month and donate £3 to Guts UK instead. • Host a Guts UK collection tub in your shop or business. • Having a new year clear-out? Maybe host a second-hand sale! • Do a sponsored silence. 💡 Are you feeling as inspired as we are? Contact us today to see how you too can get to grips with guts and change lives! #Fundraising #GutsUK #GutHealth #Running #Marathon #BakeSale #Cycling #Raffle #DigestiveSystem #DigestiveHealth #DigestiveHealth #GUTSelfie

Last Saturday, our founder Gordon Miller embarked on an incredible journey, participating in the Chase The Sun Cycle, riding coast to coast. Every pedal stroke of this grueling 310-kilometre ride, completed in just 14 hours, was dedicated to raising awareness of modern slavery and supporting Ride For Freedom. What an amazing display of mental and physical strength! Now, we’re inviting YOU to join the #CycleRevolution and make a difference. Whether with friends, collogues, or solo, ride the way you want and help us raise crucial funds to help fight modern slavery. You have a choice in how you participate: Why not set your own challenge? It doesn't have to be anywhere near as intense as Gordon's. Your challenge could be: 1. Riding your bike every day during Anti-Slavery Week. 2. Taking your family out for a ride. 3. Creating a relay team with colleagues. 4. Organizing a group ride with your spin class. 5. Baking treats for the cyclist at your organisation taking part and sharing them to raise awareness and funds. Every effort counts, and every choice you make helps our incredible organization educate, raise awareness, advocate, and provide remedies for survivors of modern slavery through cycling. Ready to make a difference? Sign up for the Cycle Revolution and choose how you’ll contribute - https://lnkd.in/erw3b2cd #RideForFreedom #EndModernSlavery #makeadifference #cycleyourway #raiseawareness #jointhemovement #fundraising #sponsor #donate #AntiSlaveryWeek

Here is to 10 more great years
Wow, 10 years today The Running Charity became a registered charity, we tend not to look back as an organisation or a team, focused firmly on the young people, where they are going and how we can support them. But days like this are important to mark. As a charity we have pioneered and paved the way, demonstrating the power of running to reach in and raise up the lives of people that much of society and sport had turned their back on. There are so many people we need to thank but we wanted more than anything to thank the 1000s of young people who have put one foot in front of the other to be better than the hand they were dealt and build a better life for themselves. From the first group who designed it with us to those of you who are just starting their journey now, we are so proud to be with you by your side. Over the next year, we will be creating, crafting and celebrating this milestone with this beautiful community, stay tuned, stay running, and keep caring! If you want to be part of leading the run and transforming both the running community and those most in need of its transformative power, then get in touch.

At One Impossible Thing we want to break down barriers that impede people from participating in sport. Redistributing preloved sports shoes to those who struggle to afford them, is our main way of doing this. But we also know that sometimes motivation is a barrier from getting out there and being active. Which is why we're involved in organising the Boxmoor Virtual Marathon! The idea is to run, bike, scoot, walk, swim or wheel your way through the 26 miles/42kms, over a ten week period. In this Olympic year, the virtual marathon starts when the Olympic Flame arrives in France on 8th May. You have until mid July to complete your marathon, so you can have your finishers medal in time for the Olympic Opening Ceremony! It’s a great challenge for families, who can get out together on their bikes or on a walk together. If you do 5kms each week, you’ll have completed your marathon by July, with time to spare! All money raised through sponsorship will ensure we can carry on with all the work we do with schools, homeless charities, refugees groups and school holiday activity camps. Once registered, you can ask families and friends to sponsor you. If you ask 10 people for £10, that’s £100 you’ve raised!

Dedicated and passionate about guiding people and teams toward greatness. I thrive on empowering growth, every day.
Is it really a whole week since I set off to London to get ready for my first London Marathon? "How was it?" I've had a few people ask.. It's hard to put into words, but I'll have a go at a few that come to mind: 👟Epic 👟Euphoric 👟Tough 👟Emotional 👟Rewarding The hardest part was the months of training, the build up, the stress of working out how to get to London when there's train strikes. And then there's the packing - I've never packed so much for a weekend away (energy gels, hydration, snacks to name a few items that took up a fair bit of space). It's true what experienced runners told me - the marathon itself is your lap of honour. I can vouch for this - London felt like one big party and whilst I wished the pain towards the end away, the brilliant memories will last a lifetime. The crowd support was spectacular and uplifting. The rewarding bit comes down to smashing my charity target for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. All of the well wishes and donations flooding in as the big day arrived was a great motivator I'm so grateful for every one of them. And so to the next challenge - the Giacom mission to conquer the Keswick 3 Peaks. Can't wait! Just in case you didn't get a moment to sponsor me and would like to, here is my charity link. The Make-A-Wish Foundation make magical dreams come true for kids who are suffering. Such a great cause. https://lnkd.in/ejsSUTYB #londonmarathon #personalchallenge #running #makeawishfoundation #giacom #charitychallenge #greatplacetowork

Rising living costs can make it challenging to afford the essentials, let alone cover the expenses of sports gear and membership fees. Kids rapidly outgrow their sports equipment and clothing, adding to the financial strain. Supporting multiple sports and children can make it a costly hobby. However, parents can still support their favourite clubs while managing the ongoing expense of keeping their growing kids equipped by donating and/or purchasing through our Grassboots App. https://lnkd.in/eFDR_EEv #Grassboots 🌱 #Fundraising 💰 #SustainableFundraising 🌿 #sustainable #RecycleAndRaise ♻️ #CommunitySupport 👥 #SportClubSolutions ⚽ #circulareconomy ♻️ #AffordableSports 🎽 #LocalClubs 🏠 #PrelovedSportsGear 👟 #BuySellDonate 🔄 #GrassrootsSupport 🌾 #EcoFriendlySports 🌍 #ParentsSupport 👨👩👧👦 #ClubRegistration ✍️ #SportsKitRecycling 👕 #YouthSports 🧒 #GrassbootsApp

Managing Director GRAF UK Ltd | Co-Host of Moonshot NFT podcast | Entrepreneurs Circle Ambassador | NFTs | Punk3356
Today we’re about to embark on a charity fundraising challenge, to row 544,000 metres (344 miles) on rowing machines in our gym at work. It’s a team effort, so I’m confident we’ll achieve the distance within the maximum time of 24 hours that we’ve allowed ourselves to complete it. Not that I’m expecting it to be easy, we’ve not had that many team members volunteer to take part! Such is the attraction of rowing for several hours, especially all through the night! Either way, what I’m most excited about are the multiple benefits of doing such a challenge. 1. We will raise valuable funds for our local hospice (our aim is £10k which we’re well on target to achieve). 2. We will raise the profile of our business through people sharing this challenge with new people. 3. We will increase our social media followers and connections, especially as we aim to attract more people to watch the livestream. 4. We will work together as a team and achieve something meaningful, bringing us closer together. 5. We are bringing our brand values to life by setting a challenging goal, helping other people, finding a way to make it a success, hopefully exceeding our target, and enjoying the journey throughout. When there are so many benefits to such a challenge, it really doesn’t matter how hard it is to achieve, the “why” is big enough so you’re motivated to get it done. Sometimes we’re limited not by what we’re capable of doing, but by the reasons that exist to actually do whatever it is. Make it about other people, or causes you care about, and you’ll be amazed what you are capable of, if it really matters to you. #everydays

🤔 Are you embarking on #RunningForACause ? WELL DONE! Whether it's to raise awareness or to raise funds...think about all the components from WHY to HOW. 🧡 Running for a charity event can be a rewarding experience close to your heart BUT...it does not have to be to your own detriment...at your own physical expense! ⭐ Preparing for it, whatever your running experience is, will not only allow you to keep running -if this is what sparks you... ...but looking after yourself and be your best for those around you...who are not necessarily invested in your cause -while you still care for, and you and them are still alive. 💡Now compare your 'physical run' to your 'business run'. Being in this photo was a tipping point to stretch myself and I decided to be in Enfys Maloney's world. By then, I had experienced the beginning of what's now 'The Success Vault programme' and a VIP event in London- where I felt like jumping to 'Secondary School' just having brushed through 'Primary School'. I read books & articles, I listen to audios and I naturally watch tutorials without even scheduling it -more than I watch Netflix...but my true learning is Kinestetic (by feeling it)! I need to witness (in real life), experiment, play, feel... whatever it is that I am learning, in my own way and at my own pace...and this is WHY I'm in ENFYS' world... I can sprint if I want to (or have to), but I prefer to enjoy the journey building solid steps, physically, in business or through life itself. P.S. I'm now officially opening the #WAITINGLIST of a 5-week training program that will help you prepare for your #RunningEvent while raising funds for a good cause -and not at your physical detriment. ✒Message me or email me if interested. P.S.S. Today are my *Day 8/30* (#AprilLIVEChallenge) And my *Day 3/5* (#AprilSprintChallenge) but I seem to have caught a laryngitis virus (or have been contagied by my husband) and I am saving my voice for tomorrow's class. #RunningForCharity #RunningEvent
