Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I decided to run for the Brandon centre for my first half-marathon after working with the organisation in my role with young people leaving care.

Sadly, I found it incredibly difficult to find young people appropriate mental health services when they turned 18 and children's mental health services were no longer able to work with them.

The Brandon Centre recognises this issue and offers a comfortable, welcoming, and non-institutional setting for young people to access a range of mental health and well-being services up until they turn 25.

Their innovative approach applies psychotherapeutic principles to devise and implement mental health services, and they partner with schools, youth offending services and advice agencies to engage and reach out to high priority groups of young
people.

Please help me raise money for this wonderful charity so they can continue to offer high quality psychological services to the young people of Camden and Islington. This includes care experienced young people as they transition into adulthood and may otherwise struggle with long waiting lists for mental health support and services that do not meet their needs.
