I'm running the London Marathon this year, aiming to fundraise for the Samaritans. Running has a positive influence on my Mental Health, and wanted to promote the amazing work the charity does in the process.

The Samaritans and the work they do is a charity that means a lot to me, being a constant support 24/7 to those in real need of support. They give people ways to cope and the skills to be there for others. They encourage, promote and celebrate those moments of connection between people that can save lives. 

Their work has significantly helped in suicide prevention in the UK, and knowing the pain and anguish of suicide with people I know who took their own lives, can help prevent a tragedy for another family. 

Please help to donate- any amount will help!
