All 10 completed the challenge with James Parkin running an impressive 43 minutes, quickly followed by Matthew Aylmer only a minute behind… the team then fully rehydrated on the South Bank!

Body & Soul transforms the lives of the people who come through its doors, its ‘Members’, who have experienced abuse, neglect, and family breakdown in childhood.

Every donation provides innovative therapeutic services to some of the most vulnerable members of society, people whose lives have been devastated by trauma and adversity, providing essential practical and emotional support.

Since 2017, for example, Body & Soul has supported over 750 young people most at risk of suicide and not one has taken their own life. We know this because the charity has a long-term approach, remaining in contact with Members for years after accessing its programmes.

There is still time to sponsor the team, please follow the link to donate https://www.justgiving.com/page/lds-10km-run-team
