Story
Thank you so much for viewing our Just Giving page!
For all 31 days of January, some of the 'Sampayo Cousins' will be taking part in R.E.D (Run Every Day) January to raise money for the mental health charity 'Mind'.
The aim of this challenge is to get active in some way (be it running, walking, swimming, exercise classes, etc.) for every day of January to:
- Boost our own happy chemicals in an otherwise grey month
- Promote the link between physical and mental health
- Raise awareness of mental health issues and remove the stigma from talking about it
- Raise awareness of the amazing work 'Mind' do and get some money together to help them continue doing this work
Our family has been personally affected by mental illness so it is an issue very close to all of our hearts. It would really mean a lot to us if you could donate something to sponsor us and motivate us through RED January.
We understand that January is a difficult month financially after the festivities of December but anything that you can give - no matter how big or small - could go a long way. It costs Mind £6 to answer one call to their InfoLine which provides people with advice and support... so you could be helping to save a life.
We will be uploading a photo every day to prove that we really are keeping active!
