Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Forest of Dean Half Marathon · 26 September 2021

The Ted Senior Foundation was set up after Ted Senior (aged 22) took his own life. He was a medical student following his dreams. The premise of the service will be to train individuals in universities and local schools sports teams in mental health first aid. We also work with The Support after Suicide Partnership.

Story

So not many of you know this but many years ago, one of my closest friends went home one Friday afternoon and I never saw him again. It is a tragedy that has been close to my heart throughout my life and has had a considerable impact upon me. Back then, mental health wasn't something that was discussed or supported in the way it is now and much of this change is due to the amazing work of charities such as the Ted Senior Foundation.

The importance of mental health is unvalued. Look after yours and that of those around you. If you ever need a chat my door is always open for a cuppa (real life or virtual) or if you need greater support text #TED to 85258 for 24/7 crisis support.

Running this half marathon is a huge challenge for me so I am also running it to raise money for The Seahorse Trust - if you would like to read more about this please see here: https://gofund.me/23909391
