Eight ULI members will be running in the London Marathon this Sunday in aid of Alone in London, a youth homelessness charity.

The charity works to prevent homelessness amongst young people, aged 16 – 25 through a range of services. Their aim is to empower young people by developing the skills and resources they need to secure sustainable and safe accommodation and to fulfil their potential.

Housing is a key to creating and sustaining thriving communities. ULI is a leading provider of research and analysis on issues that affect housing and is particularly focused on the development of affordable housing, a key factor in preventing homelessness.

The members of the ULI Marathon Team believe that there is a clear link with the on-the-ground work of Alone in London in the local community and are pleased to be able to support them through their fundraising efforts.

The team have reached 97% of their sponsorship target and would greatly appreciate any further donations to help them reach their goal.

The team members are:

David Rendall (LFF Real Estate Partners); Marcus Hale (Tishman Speyer); Stefano Maturi (JP Morgan); Alexander Morris (Tishman Speyer); Stuart Rendall (St George’s RC School); Alex Houghton; Gary Taylor (Stanhope); Sam Baxter (Tsunami Axis).
