My Story

Hi all, my name is Chris Hodgins and I'm raising money for the most amazing charity; Oasis UK by running the London Marathon on April 21st 2024.

I have run the marathon distance before and boy is it tough but one of the most rewarding feats I have ever done. I am incredibly lucky to be able to run the famous London Marathon again while raising money for such a fantastic cause!

All donations will be supporting the amazing work that Oasis do which include the running of Living room warm spaces and helping vulnerable families through the cost of living crisis this winter. For further information on their life changing work, please take a look at their website: www.oasisuk.org.

About OasisUK

Oasis UK does fantastic work across multiple areas of society; 

-Fighting food poverty through foodbanks, pantries and activity clubs tackling holiday hunger. 
-Supporting children and young adults struggling with their mental health by staging early intervention drop-ins in schools and Community hubs. 
-Working with the Ministry of Justice to establish a "secure school" which will take a holistic, trauma-informed approach to rehabilitation. 

Oasis Charitable Trust is a Company Limited by Guarantee (no. 2818823) and a Registered Charity (no. 1026487).

Background of the race:

The London Marathon has become an annual, inspiring and colourful fixture in the world’s sporting calendar since the inaugural race on 29 March 1981: a celebration of fun, fundraising and fancy dress.

Over the years more than a million people have completed the 26.2-mile course – which runs from Blackheath to The Mall, with a spectacular finish in front of Buckingham Palace, showcasing the very best that the capital city has to offer.

What’s more, these participants have raised over a billion pounds for charity and there have been countless amazing tales of human achievement throughout the event’s history – living up to its aim of helping participants ‘to have fun, and provide some happiness and sense of achievement in a troubled world’.
