Running 5K to Protect Children | Supporting the Lucy Faithfull Foundation

On 21 November 2026, I will be taking part in a 5K run to raise money for the Lucy Faithfull Foundation, a UK charity that works to prevent child sexual abuse.
We constantly come across news stories about child abuse, and one thing I have often thought about is what can actually be done to stop these things from happening in the first place.

This is what made the Lucy Faithfull Foundation stand out to me. A big part of their work focuses on prevention and early intervention, including providing confidential support through Stop It Now to people who may be worried about their own behaviour or someone else’s.

I think preventing harm before it happens is just as important as helping people after it has happened, so I wanted to do my small part in supporting this cause. This will also be my first organised 5K run, and I am still working on improving my running fitness, so it will be a personal challenge for me as well.

My goal is to raise £250, and any contribution, no matter how small, would mean a lot. Even if you are not able to donate, simply sharing this page would really help. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for supporting a cause that I genuinely believe deserves more awareness.

Every step counts, and so does every contribution! 💙
