Hello! Thank you for taking time to visit my JustGiving page!

I have lived and studied in Cardiff for the past 3 years so it is great to be
able to take part in this event which will be my first attempt at running a half marathon. I will be raising money for the important research being undertaken at Cardiff University which is helping to have a greater understanding of disease mechanisms, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of many mental health disorders from childhood to old age. 

The University's neuroscience and mental health research scientists have already played a major role in the identification of the genetic origins of diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Dementia, Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia. They continue to provide new insights into how these genes influence our biology, brain and behaviour - insights which are translated directly to patients, changing clinical practice in the process.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity. 100% of the money raised will go directly to Cardiff University’s world-leading research, helping to save, change and enrich lives in Wales and beyond.

Any support will be hugely appreciated!
