The Maintain Hope charity is seeking participants on their behalf for the VHI Womens Mini Marathon, for which registration opens next week, writes Brian Byrne.

The charity, which has strong Kilcullen connections, supports children and families in Kenya, connected to a children's home in Ngong near Nairobi.

The current chairperson of Maintain Hope is Esther Reddy. Anyone wishing to take part in the Mini Marathon on the charity's behalf should PM her on Facebook.

"We support children in Kenya, many of whom have been rescued from the streets of Nairobi and Mombasa," Esther says. "We enable them to be reintegrated with extended families, provide medical care, relieve economic hardship and provide sustainable educational opportunities."
