Steve Newmarket Half

On 31st May I will be running the Newmarket half marathon to raise money for codebar, a charity that runs free workshops and events to enable people from underrepresented groups to pursue successful careers in tech. Codebar is a charity close to my heart because attending codebar workshops has been so helpful in my own journey switching careers into tech. The mentors have been incredibly welcoming and supportive and I've had the best time meeting others students. I want to continue to help codebar with their important work by fundraising whilst also challenging myself physically.

Why I am supporting codebar
More on their mission from codebar themselves: "We’re addressing the tech diversity problem by providing free coding and tech workshops for minorities. In the past decade, we’ve taught 19,200+ people and fostered a supportive, global community of students, mentors, and tech professionals. Our mission is to build skills, confidence, and connections to help more people from diverse backgrounds succeed in tech."
