🏃‍♂️ Our Biggest Half Marathon Team Ever – Running for Hope!

We’re thrilled to announce that this year’s Swansea Half Marathon will see our biggest ever Matthew’s House running team take to the streets in support of our mission to offer Hospitality and Hope!

On June 8th, an amazing group of 16 runners will proudly wear our bright new Matthew’s House running tops, raising vital awareness and funds for our projects—including the Matt’s Community Choir and our wider work serving vulnerable people across Swansea.

Among the team are legends like Dan, Libby, Claire, and Dan (yes, two Dans!)—just a few of the heroes already training hard and representing what community, compassion, and commitment look like.

💛 Why They’re Running

Every stride, every mile, and every drop of sweat is in support of the hundreds of people we serve each week. Your sponsorship helps us:

  • Provide warm meals and safe spaces

  • Create dignity packs for those experiencing homelessness

  • Run creative projects like our choir, offering belonging and joy

  • Continue serving with love, no questions asked

👏 A Huge Thank You

We want to say a massive WELL DONE and THANK YOU to every runner on the team. Your dedication and energy inspire us all. And to Peter Lynn & Partners, thank you once again for your generous sponsorship of our running crew—you’re truly helping make all this possible.

📸 Stay Tuned

We’ll be sharing more photos and updates in the coming weeks as our runners train and get ready to go—so keep an eye on our socials and cheer them on!
