Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In 2017 I was made redundant and was out of work for 16 months. This period really affected my mental health and began to impact my family and everyday life. I’d never particularly had to think about my mental health before and my redundancy along with a few personal issues very much made me stand up and take notice.

Along with the support of my family and accessing several mental heath resources, I was able to feel like myself again. 

I am now far more self aware and mindful of those around me and how we should all take care of our mental health. Now I feel I have come out the other side of a low and i’d like to do my part and give something back to perhaps help someone just like me in the future.
