‘I will be fundraising for Pecan, a charity devoted to empowering individuals and families facing adversity.’
Ready to challenge yourself and change lives this year?
Whether you run, swim, row, or cycle – why not turn your energy into hope?
As in previous years, our charity events are a vital part of our fundraising. During the COVID-19 lockdowns, many discovered the mental and physical benefits of staying active – and countless people have continued ever since. Now, you can take that passion and make a real difference.
Your efforts – and the donations you raise – reach people who may feel invisible: the isolated person longing for connection, the family struggling with food poverty. Your generosity helps us build a community where no one is left behind. It fuels all our services, from providing food through our foodbank and pantry, to creating safe spaces for women, offering employment support and training, and keeping our warm hub and community hub open to everyone.
Every mile, every stroke, every step is a lifeline. Together, we can challenge poverty and transform lives.
If you are interested in taking part in any of the following, get in touch with our Partnerships Manger and we can secure your place. We are asking that participants set up an Enthuse or use Pecan’s page so you can start fundraising!
If you or anyone you know is interested in taking part, please get in touch with us on:
