I have a confession to make. I have now been running regularly for nearly five years and have not raised one single £ for charity. Yes, that's correct - despite having run two marathons, five half marathons and numerous 10k's, I have not once decided to use one of the things I love doing most of all to raise money for a good cause.

This seems even stranger given my fairly generous disposition, as well as the sheer number of charities that offer places for some of the world's greatest running events.

So why haven't I done anything? If I'm being honest,...

For our 2019 Challenge we are doing the Royal Windsor Triathlon on Sunday 16th June.

Some of us are already training hard (and the rest of us are just about to start…) But we need your support. If you're feeling ambitious, there's still time to sign up to the Royal Windsor Triathlon and fundraise for us. Send us a message, sign up for updates here, and we'll help you get started!

If you don't think a triathlon is for you can still help. Please consider donating to some of the brave souls taking part and thus enable us to continue...

we were told this today: “last night I was on the bus home after work, just like any other week day, not expecting anything especially profound to occur.

The work we do and the support we're able to give our clients just wouldn't be possible without the help of a fantastic team of mentors and volunteers. We spoke to a couple of our mentors to ask them how they've found working with The Reasons Why Foundation and they've learnt along the way.

Here's what they said:

"Working with the RWF has been enjoyable and educational. Mentoring someone who simply needs more support is a great way to enhance your own understanding of the justice system, diversify your own thoughts and help people who deserve a second chance at...

Join us on Saturday 16th June for our 2018 challenge - the Yorkshire 3 Peaks!

This year our RWF Challenge is the Yorkshire 3 Peaks.

The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge takes on the peaks of Pen-y-ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough, usually in this order, and in under 12 hours. These peaks form part of the Pennine range, and encircle the head of the valley of the River Ribble, in the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

The route we take is 24 miles (38.6km), and includes 1585m (5200ft) of ascent.

The people we support at The Reasons Why Foundation face difficult challenges every day and we see...
