Barefoot marathon for a noble cause! Paris

Horatio's Garden

At Hewins Oak, we are deeply committed to supporting causes that resonate with our values and make a tangible difference in people's lives. Recently, we had the privilege of contributing to Simon Burvill's inspiring fundraising effort for Horatio's Garden.​

On April 13, 2025, Simon Burvill, Founder and Chief Executive of Gaze Burvill, will undertake his first-ever marathon in Paris, running 'barefoot'. This remarkable endeavor aims to raise funds for Horatio's Garden, a charity dedicated to creating and nurturing beautiful, accessible gardens within NHS spinal injury centers across the UK. ​

Simon draws a profound connection between the grounding experience of barefoot running and the therapeutic essence of nature that Horatio's Garden provides to individuals facing life-changing spinal injuries. His dedication to this cause is evident, and we are honoured to support his mission.​
