Madeline’s story
I have chosen to run the Brighton half marathon to fundraise for Gorkha Development Scheme. I had the pleasure of spending a month volunteering with GDS in 2023 and saw firsthand how brilliant this work is. They are a small volunteer-run charity and every penny goes to incredibly worthwhile locally run community development projects in the Gorkha district of Nepal. From supporting children who would otherwise be unable to access education to creating spaces for women to get informed about preventing health conditions that are prevalent in the community, this charity makes a huge difference to people’s lives. Also, I will likely be one of the people bringing up the rear of the half marathon, so if you could chuck a couple of quid into this pot it will really motivate me to finish the race!!!
