02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Runforever was founded as a non-profit organisation in March 2023 and became a SCIO in August 2024. It promotes educational projects based on marathon running and the Feldenkrais method (awareness through movement) for humanising health care within prison environment and the community towards a future society fostering difference and variation including addressing issues of reoffending and stigmatisation. It offers small beautiful actions participating in wider systemic change. Runforever began a collaboration with HMP Grampian in February 2023 helping set up a running club and more recently (May 2024) a Feldenkrais group welcoming participants from inside and outside, to address underlying health inequalities, inequities and stigmatisation which affect the prisoner population in Scotland. These activities aim to tackle the underlying causes of reoffending by fostering a community of support which works as a bridge between inside and outside the prison.
