Madison ran 5k every day for 21 days in December. She raised an amazing £875.
She told us why she decided to challenge herself and raise funds for the Foodbank:
“I work as an estate agent and my eyes were really opened to how many people were using the food bank services and it was people I wouldn’t even expect. It is so easy just going about day to day life taking things for granted so I knew I had to do something to help coming up to the busiest time of year, Christmas. The thought of families going hungry in this period made me feel dreadful so I decided to run 5k every day for 21 days so I could purchase everything before Christmas.
“I raised £875 and that was all spent on food, toiletries etc and donated to the Foodbank. The running was tough but it was all for a good cause and I also documented it on my TikTok to make other people be more mindful when they are doing their food shop”.
Thank you Madison! What an incredible achievement!
We really couldn’t keep doing what we do without the support of people like Madison. It really does make a difference to local people in times of crisis.
