“Home-Start literally saved me. I had fallen through the gaps and felt that no one could see what I was going through. But Home-Start saw me and my child, and to this day, they are the most important people in my life.”
Run for us and you could make a difference to a child that will last a lifetime

Still thinking about it?
Then why not be inspired by one of our runners who took part last year:
“I had never run in my life, but I am very passionate about the impact that Home-Start makes to families, many of which are at crisis point.
And that’s what I thought about during my training, my fundraising and on the day itself. I thought about the challenges so many families are facing right now, and it got me over the finish line!
The Home-Start team are amazing, and I would not hesitate to run for them again. Go on, be part of team
Home-Start Greater Manchester!”
