#Eddie izzard running challenge full#
Participants can choose whether to walk or run the 16 miles from Horsham to Shoreham, or for anyone feeling super fit, or wanting a bigger challenge, there is an option to do the full 36 miles from Guildford to Shoreham. The event has been organised to ensure it complies with all Covid safety measures and anyone wanting to walk as a group are being asked to keep the number to six. Money raised by events such as YMCA DownsLink Challenge, will go towards sustaining and increasing our provision for those local young people most in need.”Īfter such a long lockdown winter, we are hoping that people will be keen to use this event as an opportunity to get out with friends or family into the beautiful countryside, in a safe and Covid secure way. And, most worryingly, we’ve seen a huge increase in the severity of the mental health issues presenting in our young residents and those coming to our Youth Advice Centres (YAC). Despite increasing the capacity of our family mediation service, we have long waiting lists. Young people, particularly those in low paid or gig economy jobs, have felt the economic impact of the pandemic already and many are struggling to afford the basics, such as food & rent. We’ve also seen a huge rise in the number of young people presenting as homeless due to an increase in family conflict. YMCA DLG CEO Chas Walker explains how the fundraised income will support our work: “This past year has been tough for everyone, but for many young people, already on the margins of society, it has been devastating. The Downs Link Pathway, which is a disused railway line, links Surrey to Sussex (Guildford to Shoreham by Sea) and is how we got our name.
Money raised by the event will go towards funding our work to both tackle and prevent youth homelessness right across Sussex and Surrey. YMCA YAC Talk it Over (Family mediation).
