  • “Running for Embrace made it so incredibly special. I cannot thank you enough for giving me such a privileged opportunity. I will never ever forget it. I have loved every minute of fundraising and I am so proud to have reached and exceeded the target.”

  • "As a father, nothing frightens me more than the thought of harm coming to my children—or any child, for that matter. The idea of children losing their parents to crime is especially heartbreaking. That’s why I feel deeply compelled to raise money for Embrace CSoC, a charity that provides vital emotional support, practical advice, and theme park days out to young people and families who have experienced the trauma of crime."

  • "After more than 30 years as a police officer, I’ve seen the pain that victims carry and it never leaves you. Helping people, listening to them, sometimes during the worst time of their lives is the reason I joined. But too often we forget the most vulnerable, our children. They have no voice, no control, and no choice in what happens to them, yet they carry the deepest scars. I want to be part of something that truly stands up for them and if by running the marathon and raising money but also awareness of your charity I feel like I’m helping again. I have friends in the police who have had support from the charity along with a lovely friend who works for you and I just think what you do is special and should be supported and recognised."

In addition to liking and sharing our posts, would you consider doing a Facebook Fundraiser on your birthday or other special occasion?

Facebook Fundraisers are easy to set up, and since Facebook does not charge fees to nonprofits, 100% of the funds donated will go to Embrace CVoC to help children and families rebuild their lives after the divesting effects of crime.
