Annie runs for girls in South Sudan!

24 May 2019

On Sunday the 19th May, Annie Crockford ran the Hackney Half Marathon for HART UK. We were overwhelmed with Annie’s success in raising £1,190 for personal hygiene and sanitation kits for women and girls in Hai Masna displacement camp in South Sudan.

“During training, I was trying to decide which charity I should donate to and which one stood out the most to me. I heard about HART and immediately wanted to raise awareness of the lengths this charity goes to help people in really difficult situations.

I was interested in the fact that they focus on really dangerous areas which most other charities wouldn’t attempt because of the risk factor. It shows their true bravery and commitment to helping these various people in desperate need and this was something that I wanted to be a part of and help in any way possible.

The run was great fun and a lot better than expected! The atmosphere and support were amazing and really kept me going. It was an amazing feeling to be running with so many other people who were also raising awareness and funds for other great causes”.

A big thank you to Annie from the HART Team!
