Previously you may have known we entered a corporate team to run the Cardiff Met 10k on September 1st in order to raise awareness of mental health and the amazing work PAPYRUS does to help support those in need. I (Allison) have now extended this & decided to run Cardiff Half Marathon on October 6th.
This may not be the longest race, however, it is a crucial charity - so please dig deep and help support the charity.
Suicide is the biggest killer of young people under 35 in the UK. PAPYRUS is the national charity for the prevention of young suicide and believes that many young suicides are preventable. They operate HOPELINEUK, a confidential call, text, and email helpline for young people with thoughts of suicide or those concerned about a young person who may have thoughts of suicide. Every £5 raised can help pay for a potentially life-saving contact to HOPELINEUK from a young person wanting to stay safe from their thoughts of suicide.
Most people have been affected directly or indirectly by ill mental health so it is important we raise money, awareness and talk to one another!!
Thank you!
