We can't fight homelessness without your help
The housing crisis is now a national emergency. We believe that a safe home is a fundamental need and basic moral right. By fundraising for Shelter in the Bath Half Marathon you can join the fight to defend that right.
Every mile run, every drop of sweat, and every pound raised will make a difference.
What an amazing event. Really appreciate the opportunity to take part. Always got a boost seeing everyone else in their Shelter tops.
