Story

In May I'll be lacing up my trainers and taking on the challenge of running the Hackney Half Marathon to support the work of Mind in the City, Hackney and Waltham Forest (Mind CHWF). Each year, one in four of us will experience a mental health problem, and this figure is only set to rise. That's why I've decided to support Mind in the City and Hackney, who offer a range of support to members fo the community who are struggling with their mental health. Just £25 could pay for a low-income client with serious enduring mental health issues to attend a Managing Anger and Difficult Emotions group.

In 2017, we lost Tom Rhodes, a son, a brother, a grandson, a cousin and a wonderful friend to so many of us. Every year we host the #Forever19Cup in memory of Tom but I wanted to put myself out of my comfort zone, as many of my friends did last year, and attempt long distance running for the first time in my life all to attempt to raise money for a fantastic cause - Mind.

I'd be so grateful for any donations no matter how big or small!
