In memory of Joshua Farraway

Asda Foundation Leeds Half Marathon 2019 · 12 May 2019 ·

Student Minds empowers students to build their own mental health toolkit. We also challenge the higher education sector, health sector, and government to make student mental health a priority. Together, we’re improving university communities so that no student is held back by their mental health.

Story

On 12th May, I am running the Leeds Half Marathon with some members of my crazy netball team. I will be running in memory of Josh Farraway, who was a close friend of mine for 16 years. 

Student Minds is a phenomenal mental health charity, which focuses on spreading awareness for major mental health issues within a university environment. Please donate any amount of money to this cause, so we can help tackle prevalent issues such as male suicide, being the biggest killer of men under 45 in the UK. These donations will go a long way and Josh's family and I will be extremely grateful!

I remember Josh as an outstanding athlete, with long-distance running being one of his specialities. He'd have made a great training partner, fooling around all the time but definitely still making me work to my limits! I know I may not be as good a runner as he was, but I'll give it my best go!

Thank you very much. And look forward to many updates as I undertake one of the country's toughest courses!

This is for you, Josh. Live Forever xxxx
