Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Those who know me will know I have had my own struggles with mental health as well as watching it take over the lives of people around me. Having experienced the long waiting lists on the nhs, I know first hand just how important and life changing the work of charities such as Mind is. Though I wish it were not the case, many people rely upon their efforts where the nhs, underfunded and understaffed is unable to provide adequate support. However this all costs money, lots of it. I am raising money for Mind so that one day each person who reaches out for support can have it readily available, through group projects, counselling and other avenues of support. Mental health affects us all, either directly or indirectly and no one should be left to suffer when effective support exists but just lacks sufficient funding to be able to benefit all of those in need. 

This is also a personal challenge for me as I am aiming to quit smoking and get out of my beloved bed much more often to be able to actually complete the hike!

so please whatever you can give it would be so appreciated by myself and all those who it will benefit in the long run :)

thank you,
