Story
As an adult, I have personally been affected by my own Mental Health and found the perfect avenue for coping with the symptoms & stigma that comes with it... running.
More and more people and an increasing amount of 'young people' suffer at the hands of mental illness. My aim is simple. To help raise awareness of mental health and break down the barriers and stigmas surrounding it. My initial target is one pound for every mile I will run in 2017...1200.
To kick of the fundraising the aim is for £262, as I am running the Gloucester City Marathon (26.2 miles) with Changes as my focus.
Changes is a charity that provides an opportunity for those suffering from mental distress to move from isolation, withdrawal and dependency to becoming active and contributing members of their immediate and wider community.

I have suffered depression personally and found an outlet...running. My aim is to help those who suffer from mental health issues and help break down social stigmas that are associated.
