I'm collecting sponsorship for taking part in the Mind Your Head 2010 Round Spiggie Fun Run and Walk this August. It’s only 10k, and we (me, Dad, Stella & Amber) are going to be walking rather than running, but it’s a really important cause for such a small community where it can still feel very difficult to say “actually, I’m not ok” – and even when you do, resources are not all they could be so people often have to wait weeks to get the support they need. If you can spare a couple of pounds, it will be very much appreciated.
