I organised a race across London for my first LandAid Day
I work for Goldcrest Land. We're a small but enthusiastic team, with a huge amount of energy, and I knew the guys would immediately get on board with any fundraising events or ideas. After some initial disappointment at having missed the chance to compete at Construction Rocks (bring on 2019), LandAid Day was earmarked as our first venture.

A few weeks ago I spent the weekend in the Lake District- it was lovely. Beautiful, quiet and I ate a cracking Thai curry that was cooked on an open fire. But I wasn't just here for a jolly, I was there as part of LandAid's second Young Voices project, with nine young people who have experienced homelessness and are part of St Basils Youth Voice group.
