My story

Hello!

For those that know me, you'll know I've been running for a long time and I'm unfortunately one of those poor souls thats based my personality around it.

I don't fund raise often, but as a bit of a one off I'm running Hackney Half 2025 in aid of an amazing charity I've been involved with over the last year 🥁🥁🥁 codebar!

From the horses mouth (codebar.io/): 

Our goal is to enable minority group members to learn programming in a safe and collaborative environment and expand their career opportunities. To achieve this we run free regular workshops, regular one-off events and try to create opportunities for our students making technology and coding more accessible. 

So essentially, they make getting into tech easier for everyone - no matter who you are or where you come from.

They do amazing work and have made a difference to a great many people's lives, so if that speaks to you please consider donating!
 
Otherwise if you just want to hear about what an amazing charity they are or want to get involved either as a coach or student feel free to reach out.

Thank you! 

Sam
