Chris, who ran the Oxford Half in 2024

“It was an absolute pleasure to run for Helen & Douglas House and I am so pleased the team was able to raise so much money. The support from Helen & Douglas House was unbelievable, even random people on the streets were shouting “Go Helen and Douglas!”. Thanks again for the support and for organising the training session, that was really cool.

I’m sure this won’t be my last event for Helen & Douglas House!”
