🎉 A Huge Thank You & Congratulations to Kev 🎉

We’re incredibly proud of Kev and the team for taking on a challenge that truly pushed them beyond their limits.

They set out to conquer the Rat Race Ultra Marathon — THE WALL — an epic 70 miles (113km) journey from Carlisle to Newcastle, following the historic Hadrian’s Wall… all within 24 hours! 🏃‍♂️

Not only did they rise to the challenge, but Kev who is a proud BACKUP Guardian and Trustee raised an amazing £2,600!

This support will make a real difference and help us continue delivering life-changing work for young people.

We are so grateful for your determination, commitment, and generosity to all who donated.

You’ve inspired us all — thank you! 💙

✨ From Challenge to Change ✨

This is why our support matters and makes such a difference!

Janet from our Outreach team, alongside Emotional Health, Education, and Housing Teams, supported ‘A’ to overcome significant barriers - from accessing healthcare and financial support to improving daily living and wellbeing.

Through consistent support, those challenges have been transformed into real, positive outcomes.

Today, ‘A’ is in a far more stable and positive place — actively engaged, building skills, and making meaningful progress towards independent living and a brighter future. 🌱

💙 This is the difference the right support can make.

💙 Good Luck Kev and Team – Today’s the Day! 💙

Today, our incredible Backup Guardian and Trustee, Kevin Monk, and six teammates are taking on an extraordinary challenge to support young people facing homelessness.

They are tackling the Rat Race Hadrian’s Wall Ultra Marathon – an incredible 70 miles (113km) from Carlisle to Newcastle, following the route of the ancient Roman wall.

This challenge isn’t about a love of running. As Kev says, “The training alone is enough to make anyone sick of it!” They’re doing it because they believe every young person deserves the chance of a safer, happier future.

Every mile they run today will help raise vital funds to support young people as they move from crisis towards independence, stability, and hope.

From everyone at Backup North West, we want to wish Kev and the whole team the very best of luck. We’re incredibly proud of what you’re doing and will be cheering you on every step of the way. 👏🏃‍♂️💙

If you’d like to support their fundraising efforts, every donation – no matter the size – will make a real difference to the lives of young people in our community.

We were so grateful today - Whysup In The Community were at Asda Astley Bridge with students from Little Lever School. 💙

As part of their 6-week programme, students are raising money for local charities and we are delighted they chose BACKUP.

Today, students spent time singing, packing bags and selling products to the local community. It’s great to see them building confidence, developing new skills and giving back to others.

A huge well done to all involved, and a special thank you to Christine Baldwin from Asda⁠, who continues to go above and beyond supporting our community.
