Doncaster Mind provides a range of services and support to people who are experiencing or vulnerable to mental distress. Our vision is a society that promotes and protects good mental health for all, and that treats people with experience of mental distress fairly, positively, and with respect.

Story

To support this programme and to increase awareness of these difficulties we are planning to complete multiple sporting fundraising events to total the number of miles from Doncaster, England to Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.  The total number of miles we need to complete by Saturday 5 August is 5,848 miles which works out 293 miles each day!  Our challenge will run from Saturday 16 July and finish on Thursday 4 August 2016.

You can help by either planning an event 

  • Are you taking part in a sporting event or activities – Cycling, Running, Swimming – Raise funds and donate your miles tous
  • Are you part of a local group and could organise an event where your members could participate in an activity and you could donate your miles and possibly raise funds for us, although this isn’t essential 
  • Raise money for us by getting your friends and family to sponsor your activity or by ‘paying by the mile’ for every 5 miles completed you donate £5
