Welcome to our just giving page! Laura and Kirsty are aiming to raise funds for a local Stoke on Trent based mental health and wellbeing charity "CHANGES"
On the 21st may 2017 we will be running the Chester half marathon.
Here's a bit about why this means so much to us both.........

Laura- In November 2014 I lost my sister to suicide, after struggling with her own mental health from the loss of her boyfriend To turn my negative into a positive, I began volunteering at changes to help young people with mental health problems and to promote wellbeing. Im now employed by them and hope to continue supporting others in memory of my sister.

Kirsty- Changes is a charity extremely close to my heart. Not only does it provide support and hope to people suffering on a daily basis- it has given me more than I could ever explain. I have suffered with my own mental health for around 7 years, during this time I battled an eating disorder that I thought I would never recover from. My own battle has taught me just how much mental illness can take from a person as well as those around us. I wouldn't have come so far without the support and guidance from changes.

We feel extremely proud to be a part of the changes family, helping those suffering from mental illness on a daily basis. We are both employed by Changes and hope to raise as much money as possible to keep this amazing service running!! Any donations will be very appreciated- between now and race day we will be busy training and pushing ourselves to do Changes proud. #bringiton!

Much love,
Laura and Kirst xx
