London → Birmingham

200 kilometres. One purpose.

Yassin is taking on a 200km run from London to Birmingham to help raise funds for essential construction and rehabilitation projects in Sudan.

Over 2 days, he’ll be making his way from London to Birmingham, stopping overnight in Milton Keynes before finishing at Edgbaston Reservoir.

Yassin will also be taking on the challenge wearing traditional Somali attire throughout the run, carrying culture, identity and community with us every step of the way.

This is about more than endurance.

Across Sudan, millions of people continue to live through the devastating effects of war and displacement. Homes have been destroyed, schools have shut down, hospitals and vital infrastructure have been damaged, and families have been forced to rebuild from almost nothing.

The funds raised through this challenge will contribute towards projects focused on rebuilding and restoring essential spaces for communities in Sudan, from homes and schools to medical facilities and public infrastructure.

Every mile represents solidarity, resilience and collective action.

I know 200km will test me physically and mentally, but I hope this challenge can also keep attention on Sudan and encourage people to contribute in whatever way they can.

Whether you donate, share the fundraiser, or simply support the journey, it all makes a difference.

Follow the journey
