Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I will be running my first ever half marathon in October and I will be doing it to help raise awareness and funds for Mind, the mental health charity. The thought of running this distance is scary but so are the mental health challenges people go through every day. Every year, 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem and this is where charities like Mind come in, as they aim to give people the support and respect they need when facing these challenges. 

There is a massive inequality between the funding for mental and physical health services in the UK and that's why its so important to support organisations like Mind that want to help bridge the gap. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
