Story

Thanks for stopping by!

I've made the leap towards signing up for my first half marathon on 21st October, and I'd love it if you could read a few words about why I'm putting myself through the challenge. 

As a young person, I've known far too many friends, relatives, acquaintances and friends of friends who have suffered with mental health conditions and felt unable to go anywhere for help. If you're reading this, there's a good chance you know someone who's suffered with a mental health problem or have suffered yourself.

Mind play a crucial role in campaigning to increase government funding, in raising awareness of different conditions and the prevalence of mental illness, in breaking stigmas and in delivering help and compassion to those that need it.

So, I'd love it if you could spare a couple of pounds to help me raise money for this amazing charity. You'll be rewarded with lovely updates on red-faced and sweaty me as I slog my way to 13.1 miles - if you know me, you'll know that trying my best not to trip over my gangly legs for the whole way will be the hardest challenge of all.

Whether you're able to give one pound or 20, anything will help and I'll so very much appreciate it!

With love xxx
