I'm raising money for Care for the Wild. They do fantastic work and I especially appreciate all the work they are doing trying to stop the inhumane and ineffective badger cull policy

Many of you that know me are aware that I have suffered with mental health issues for 27 years. In 2011 I became really poorly with an inner ear disorder which lasted for many months. This really hit me and my mental health hard and I never thought I would be out there "running" (jogging) again let alone leaving the house.

Along with my family, colleagues and friends, the badger army and the friends I have made in it have been pivotal in my rehabilitation back into "normalish" life. I will never be free of my mental health issues but saving badgers has got me on top of them and I have managed to travel all over the country on badger marches something that would have been totally impossible for me in 2012.
