Codebar London Landmarks Half Marathon

Hi everyone, I'm Lewis 👋

Before signing up for this, I'd never run more than 10km before, but I was lucky enough to get an opportunity to run the London Landmarks Half Marathon whilst supporting codebar, and figured it'd be a great way to challenge myself whilst raising some much-needed funds for a much-deserving cause!

codebar is a charity that provides a safe and collaborative environment for members of minority and underrepresented groups to learn programming. They do this by running weekly free workshops and events, where volunteers (usually software developers or other techy professionals) offer free coaching to people who might otherwise not be able to access it.

I've been a coach with codebar at various points over the past few years, and it's always so rewarding to be there and great to see so many new people making their way into the tech world - and such a great community!

I'm aiming to raise £600 for this, and I found this opportunity at quite late notice (T minus 6 weeks) - so I'm going to need your help to raise the funds together quickly!
Please donate whatever you can afford and/ or share the link if you're happy to. Suggested donation (if you prefer): the price of a lunch or two (or three? 👀).

Also, remember to add Gift Aid if you can - it donates an extra 25% at no cost to you!

Thanks for reading - I'll try to post regular updates from my training! 😁
