Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

MIND works to provide a unique range of services to enable people with experience of mental distress to have a better quality of life.  I am personally very grateful to the support and information they gave me to help battle post natal depression during the months following the birth of our son, and I now want to do my bit to say thank you to them.

I have therefore chosen a challenge that is way outside of my comfort zone, and have also roped my husband Jaga in for morale support, so in October we will be 10 miles in The Great South Run. Those of you that know me well will know that I try to avoid running anywhere, so I really need your support to help keep me motivated during my training.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

I will appreciate anything you can afford to give.
