Story
As some people may or may not know, my sister Emily started experiencing bullying in year 8 of comprehensive school. As the bullying wasn't dealt with straight away, the bullying persisted which lead to my sister developing anxiety and depression at a young age.
Emily suffered partial hair loss and a deep routed fear of going out in public by herself. Simple things like going up an aisle at asda and eating in public is impossible for Emily to do. She has now turned 16 and is yet to experience a party and simple things a teenager should.
Emily didn't attend school for nearly a year due to the bullying so is now attending Step Ahead Education Centre which is a school aimed to support children with mental health issues. The staff are trained to deal and support these children with the issues of day to day life that they now face.
The issue of bullying is close to my heart as it runs in the family and even I suffered with it growing up, so would be great to do my bit in tackling it and helping out a education centre like Step Ahead in their bid to help children with these problems.

7 years agoJust wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone that has donated so far, only set the page up on Monday and never expected to be at £60 already....Been asked to go and speak to the pupils of the school once I've ran the half marathon and tell them about my training and motivate them and also find out what goods they would like the money spent on.
