Homelessness is a critical issue affecting many in our society. Rising living costs and a lack of affordable housing, exacerbated by political and planning hurdles, all contribute to this growing problem. Chris's dedication to raising awareness for homelessness, a cause close to our hearts, is truly inspiring. We were incredibly proud to support his phenomenal fundraising efforts through a donation from our Mac Mic Foundation.

We extend a big congratulations to Chris, and to all the runners who participated in the London Marathon.
