My Story

About Me

Hello there! Well, after ten years of entering the London Marathon ballot, I’ve finally got in and I’m running for such an amazing cause: Pathways SIG. As some of you may know, I have very limited running experience. I did the virtual London Marathon in 2020, but with only one “training” run beforehand, it’s safe to say I didn’t take it that seriously. This time, however, is very different.

I’ve laced up my running shoes and am already getting the miles in. I’m both nervous and excited to push my limits and raise money for this incredible cause. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will help support Pathways SIG’s vital work. 

About SIG Pathways

For over 40 years, SIG Pathways to Independence has been a crucial support system for vulnerable, single people facing homelessness and mental health challenges in Kent and Medway. 

Pathways' impactful services support over 200 people each year, helping them transition from vulnerability to independence. These services include safe accommodation, education and employment training, specialised counselling, peer mentoring, and collaboration with other support organisations.

To empower people to overcome homelessness and achieve lasting independence, Pathways equips them with essential skills, resilience, and self-reliance to develop effective coping strategies, foster supportive relationships, and improve their overall well-being. Through these efforts, Pathways facilitates their reintegration into the local community, helping them build a solid foundation for fulfilling and stable lives.
