What's it like doing an event for RASASC?
Paris ran the London Landmarks Half Marathon for RASASC in 2023 and 2024:
“Someone very close to me was sexually abused as a child, so that's why I support RASASC. I’ve seen how this trauma has affected their life, and still has an effect on them today. I want to stand up for survivors, let people know that it’s ok to talk about sexual abuse, and that help is out there.
"RASASC have been fantastic! We had a WhatsApp chat for all the runners where we could share training tips and it really kept us all motivated when training in the cold wind and rain.
"Seeing the RASASC team in the crowds on race day was amazing!
"The cheers of support and the sweets to get us to the finish line were so lovely - the perfect motivation boost and it made me a little emotional too! They're an amazing team and I am honoured to have run for them two years in a row. Thank you RASASC Guildford, for all that you do!"
Jess has run the London Landmarks Half Marathon three times for RASASC:
“I’ve chosen to run for RASASC three years in a row because they truly deserve all the awareness and funds to support the crucial work they do, in helping survivors and victims navigate trauma.
“RASASC is a charity deeply close to both mine and my family's hearts, and choosing to run for RASASC has been a huge privilege. It’s also something I have found deeply healing as I navigate my own trauma.
“The support from the RASASC team is unmatched! From being asked to help design marketing materials like the new running tops for the charity, to specialist support from top-level athletes, RASASC guide you every step of the way.”
