Story

I approached Michelle Leigh as I wanted to raise funds for the Oli Leigh Trust .My Name is Luke Bodnar and I am 23 years old and I want to help promote this great charity further. I am Spinning straight for 5 hours at Anytime Fittness on 28th May 2022 . I’ve battled with my mental health since young due to losing my dad at 12 . I am raising funds to help the Oli Leigh Trust get into Universities  to talk about suicide and help others in the same boat . 

Oli Leigh took his own life in 2018 aged 16. Oli was a bright, cheerful and much loved young man who found it very hard to communicate his feelings. He was always the first to offer a shoulder to lean on but never sought out anyone whom he could lean on or confide in. His despair with the world around him and his place in it was unknown to even his nearest and dearest and he could not find happiness or see any future direction.The Oli Leigh Trust provides funds to support organisations working to reduce teenage suicide rates in the UK.

Mental health problems don’t define who you are. They are something you experience. You walk in the rain and you feel the rain, but, importantly, YOU ARE NOT THE RAIN.

Come support me for a great cause and raise fund for a important charity .
