Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have decided to run The Royal Parks Half Marathon for Bromley and Lewisham Mind, I made this decision for two main reasons. Firstly I have had first hand experience of Dementia and the effect it has on an individuals life. I also chose to run as I feel incredibly passionate about mental health and the lack of education and understanding around it.

Bromley and Lewisham Mind help people to cope with, manage and improve their own mental health and give support to those with Dementia. The charity also ensures those with mental health and dementia have access to activities and valued roles within communities. They also help educate and improve understanding around mental health ensuring everyone is more knowledgable and understanding which is crucial in ending the stigma around mental health.

This will be my first half marathon I have ever run and need some support so I hope you can spare a couple of pounds to show you care and support a great cause too - The minimum donation is £2 which is less than your morning coffee (or tea) - so go for it!

Thanks so much for your support and your donation.
