Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I ran the Leicestershire 'Chase the sun' 10k in August 2019 in a fetching orange bib in aid of The Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM). I raised £820. 

In October 2021, the orange bib returns. I'll be running the Brighton Half Marathon for CALM.

I lost my dad to suicide in 2011, and I have struggled with anxiety, depression, and PTSD in recent years, so CALM is a charity very close to my heart. 

Your donations and messages of support are very much appreciated and make a real difference. Thank you!
