Sport has a good habit of being able to bring people together.
And that's one way Sanctuary Runners has looked to make an impact.
The Cork-based initiative co-founded by broadcaster Graham Clifford and photographer Clare Keogh looks to bring local communities and those in direct provision together, breaking down barriers in the process through sporting activity.
