Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
As you all know I am far far from a runner, however I will be running the London marathon (nothing like a challenge) on April 23rd 2017 in aid of a fantastic local charity, Buckinghamshire Mind, who I have been involved with, volunteering and working for, for over 3 years.
Although, affiliated to National Mind, Bucks Mind are completely independent, meaning that they must raise all of their funds. They provide high quality services to support and represent people with mental health needs in throughout Bucks. Working to provide a voice for people with mental health needs, to fight stigma and campaign to influence policy and decision making locally.
Mental illness is still the invisible illness however it affects 1 in 4 of us in one way or another. In a time where the NHS in under huge pressure the role of charities is more important than ever, so please please dig deep for this great cause.
It's going to be tough but training has begun and so have the blisters!
Thank you very much for your support.
