We have 6 amazing fundraisers running the London Marathon for Links this year! We are so incredibly grateful for each of them - for their persistence, their determination and their heart to make a difference through the challenge.
We asked them 'Why Links?' and here is what a few of them said:
"I work closely with The Dust Project who works alongside Sri Lanka-based charity, the Paalam Project (one of Links' Act4You accounts). Through The Dust Project/Paalam, my family sponsor Jana, who is a child, now adult."
Steve
"What I really like about Links is that you are local, a really focused charity and the projects you support make a real discernable difference to the communities. Also the 'big' charities do brilliant work, but can overshadow and drown out other worthwhile enterprises. Like Links!"
Tim
"I love that I am running for Links Charity. I was born in Zimbabwe and lived between Zim and South Africa for most of my life, moving over to the U.K. in my mid 30’s. I have experienced how countries in Africa and Asia, need this helping hand in becoming self sufficient, first hand. Teaching new skills and concepts to a community, enabling them to help themselves and become independent, is invaluable."
Samantha
"I chose Links because they have a range of areas to lift up people not just focusing on one element. I believe that this is a more holistic approach to make a real difference."

We will be sharing more about our runners and their giving pages over the next few weeks on the lead up to the event. Let's cheer them on and encourage them with this amazing challenge.
