THANKS TO OUR MARATHON RUNNERS!!
Congratulations to Laura Glazebrook and Vanessa Parsons for completing the London Marathon on Sunday 26 April 2026 to support the work of Bromley Homeless.
Laura completed the course in 4 hours 42 minutes, and Vanessa in 5 hours 22 minutes!
Vanessa has volunteered at our winter night shelter and her employer generously matched donations up to £1,000.
Laura ran in memory of her Aunty Jenny, who experienced homelessness during a difficult period with her mental health. Bromley Homeless, in partnership with the local council, helped her rebuild her life, reconnect with her family, and move into a new home. The kindness of unpaid volunteers — who supported her right to the very end — left a lasting impact.
Supporters were on the route to cheer Laura and Vanessa on. “Good luck! I’ll be up there cheering with my Bromley Homeless t-shirt on, it’s an amazing day you’ll love every minute of it!” wrote Mark Draycott, who ran to support the work of Bromley Homeless in the 2025 London marathon.
Laura has raised a stunning £2,130 (so far) for the work of Bromley Homeless (plus £278.75 in GiftAid). Vanessa has raised a stunning £2,083.90 (so far) (plus £446.56 in GiftAid).
Many thanks for all of you who supported Vanessa and Laura and our work for homeless people in Bromley. If you want to add to this total on JustGiving, please click below.
