<p>Hi I'm Edward Rose, thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>I am running the London Marathon in 2012 to support the mental health charity - Mind.&nbsp; This marathon bid is also in memory of my brother who suffered from mental illnesses before commiting suicide.&nbsp;</p> <p>1 in 4 people in the UK will suffer from some form of mental illness at some point in their lives and with the pressure of everyday life increasing, it's thought this figure could rise.&nbsp;</p> <p>Families and friends are also affected by the devestating consequences of living with mentally ill people.&nbsp; It's impossible to understand how it feels to suffer mental illness when there are no visible symptoms, but the desperation and despair are very real.&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
