Story

Maybe the wrong way to do things, but at the beginning of the year, I decided to do run a marathon (and still having traumatic memories about that moment!). 

Now, as the training is coming to an end and the big day is getting closer and closer, and inspired by others, I would like to invite anyone to help me make this more than a -let´s face it- rather masochistic way of spending a fine Saturday morning, and give a few of your spare pounds a good use.

So, please, dig in your pockets and let´s see if we can help MIND do their worthy work supporting vulnerable people falling through the cracks of our lovely NHS.

Thank you in advance, 

Jose  

About the charity

We're a local mental health charity that are doing things differently. We aim to be an organisation that responds sensitively and thoughtfully to people with mental health problems; that understands that mental health problems are deeply entrenched in the inequalities and deprivations of class, race, gender and sexuality. We don’t believe that these problems can be treated by a ‘one size fits all’ approach, but instead need a unique and ethical response to the individual needs of each person. We aim to respond to high levels of need in the Lambeth adn Southwark boroughs by offering a range of services so people can choose the support that feels right for them. Currently, we run a free inner city psychotherapy service for people who haven't found short term CBT type treatments helpful. We run a number of peer support groups. We have an information line for those seeking advice. We're on wards making sure impatients have a voice too. We hold annual lectures with industry experts to explore recent develops. We're out and about in the local community listening to what people need.
