Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I will taking part in a 25km walk to raise money for the charity, Mind. (mental health charity)
This charity is very personal to me as i saw my mental health start decreasing in the middle of 2020. I didn't reach out for help till late 2020 as i was scared of what people would think of me. I am trying to help others realise that getting help and realising you need help is the first step in coming to terms with a mental illness and is the hardest step, I would like the purpose of this walk to benefit those who are finding it hard to reach out for help.
How i'm coping now- I had the support of Youth Trust and now have the support of CAMHS, friends and family and ofcourse the cats. I am slowly but surely getting there and back to when I used to be.
By raising money for this charity i will be helping people to get help sooner rather than later, and not be afraid to ask for it. I found out the hard way and didn’t think I needed help, which I regret but in ways it made me stronger as a person . I want others to get the help and support they need and deserve in these already difficult times.
Me and my friend are doing a self planned 25km walk from Sandown to Cowes in hope to raise money and awareness for different charity's and hopefully make someone smile.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post. It means a lot x
