Story

For the last 4 years I have volunteered with Shout- the UK's only 24/7 text service for anyone struggling to cope with their mental health. We respond to 1,500-2,000 requests for support every day and have taken over 1.5 million conversations with people who are primarily suicidal, anxious or depressed. 

In April I will be running the London Marathon to try and raise enough funding (£500) to support 50 children, young people and adults with potentially live saving help. My training strategy may be niche, with regular 'patisserie pit stops', but what it lacks in tradition it makes up for in enthusiasm.

If you are able, please consider donating- I have seen first hand how Shout can save lives for those who are suicidal or in crisis. Any accompanying bakery recommendations also welcome...
