An Emmaus Leicestershire & Rutland companion has secured a place to participate in the 2020 London Marathon.

Kris, who has previously raised funds for Emmaus in running events, has taken on this challenge to raise even more money for the charity which has helped him.

“I am running the London Marathon for Emmaus because the charity means a lot to me.”

“Emmaus helps people who have been affected by homelessness. They offer accommodation and a wide range of support. I’m currently being supported by Emmaus Leicestershire & Rutland and I’ve had the opportunity to learn new skills and get the help I need. I want to give something back by taking on this challenge. Please sponsor me – every donation will make a difference.”

The London Marathon will take place on 26 April 2020, so Kris is already beginning his training and looks forward to keeping us updated about his progress over the coming months.
