Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I will be running the Coventry Half Marathon on 18th March 2018 in aid of the Rohingya Crisis. Watch this video here:

Treated worse than animals, the rabid dehumanisation of the Rohingyan people has become an ethnic cleansing of Myanmar. Human rights violations and destruction are rife, with women raped, children abused and villages burned to the ground.

Homes, shops and entire villages are being systematically destroyed. The refugees fleeing the violence are crossing the border injured and ill and need urgent medical attention. The camps in Bangladesh don't have sufficient resources to treat the injured or feed those who haven't eaten in days.

I love to run and seeing the work that Penny Appeal do it makes me feel humble and sad at seeing so much suffering. This is my opportunity to do what little I can to help ease the suffering for a handful of refugees. Please donate generously. For every bead of sweat that I get during running, may Allah reward you for that too. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
