On the 12th October I will be embarking on a VERY long day up in the Lake District! First up is a mountain bike expedition into Grizedale Forest (mainly uphill!!) ...Second up is a trek to the summit of the Old Man of Coniston. Finally (as my legs will be pure jelly by then) is a 1.5km kayak on Coniston Water.

1 in 8 children today have a diagnosable mental health problem.50% of people with lifetime mental health problems first experience symptoms by the age 14.Rates of depression and anxiety among teenagers have increased by 70% in the past 25 years.This is why Place2Be's work in schools throughout the UK is so important. I'm supporting mental health because it's a cause that means a lot to me. I would be so grateful for any support you're able to give - together we can make a real and positive difference to children's mental health.
