Meet our London Marathon runner!

Meet Lauren, who is taking on the London Marathon in aid of RASASC on 2 October

28-year-old Lauren from Camberley is taking on the mammoth challenge to help raise awareness of RASASC and our work across Surrey, supporting survivors of rape and sexual abuse over the age of 13.


Lauren says: “I’ve never done a marathon before, and after doing a half marathon in 2021, I swore I’d never to do it again... yet here I am now training for a full one!


“I am supporting RASASC because I believe the work they do in helping survivors of rape and sexual abuse is truly life changing. I want to raise money to give survivors the opportunity to access services, reclaim their lives and put a middle finger up to those who hurt them.” 


We're thrilled Lauren is taking on the challenge of the London Marathon to raise awareness of our helpline, counselling and Independent Sexual Violence Advisor (ISVA) services.  All RASASC services are free, confidential and non-judgemental. To find our more, visit the Get Support page of our website.


Good luck to Lauren for the 2nd October and thank you so much for supporting RASASC, the whole team at RASASC will be cheering you on!
