It gave me such a boost to get the support of well-wishers and supporters when passing the British Red Cross Hackney Destitution Centre during the run. It was great motivation to know that by running the Hackney Half, I was supporting such worthwhile projects like this one!David, 2022 Hackney Half runner, and British Red Cross Cheer Team
