The 5 reasons why I am choosing to do the fundraiser walk:
1. I would like to raise awareness around people who suffer with mental health issues, especially depression, anxiety and self-harm
2. Unaware to everyone apart from three people. I suffered in silence and was a culprit of all three of the above issues back in 2014 where I was stopped from taking my own life. (For those that know me and didn't know this apologies if this comes as a shock)
3. I love my car so much it makes me a publictransportphobe (not a word i know) i hate walking, anything longer than 400metres doesn't sit well with me (unless it is sprints) which makes this challenge WAY out of my comfort zone.
4. I was always told when things get tough in life always think of something that you would smile for as this will create positve thought processes during hard times. This was a big factor to coming out of my bad patch and from talking to a lot of people I was encouraged to start the smile4 campaign to help those that go through the same issues.
5. It's for a good cause, it will keep you fit it is definitely a challenge and ultimetly if you come and walk with us you will have a lot of fun also.
