We formed Act Against Bullying in 2000 because of concerns about the escalation of bullying in the UK. The mission of the charity is to provide young people with practical advice if they are being bullied because it matters so much. AAB is one of the longest-running UK anti-bullying charities

Story

I am running my 50th 5 km Park Run and want to use my achievement to raise awareness of how bad bullying is. 

I have been bullied once and I hated it. I have dyslexia and this mean kid said "you need some  special needs" and called me an idiot and stupid. I was new at my school and he did this for the whole year.

I felt really sad and really disappointed in myself because I thought I was useless. I didn't tell my parents about it because I didn't understand it was bullying and it was wrong.

I am running so that other children know that when they are being bullied they can tell people and it can be stopped.
