Hi everyone! 

In July I'll be taking on our 3 biggest national peaks in 24hrs  to raise funds for “You Okay Doc? “ & “You Okay Nurse” . A mental health and wellbeing charity for UK healthcare workers. 

Sadly, doctors have higher rates of mental health illness when compared to the general population - with doctors 2-4x more likely to take their own life.

24% of nurses and midwives are suffering from severe or extremely severe depression.

44% of nurses described their mental health as bad/very bad.  

It’s no surprise given what they see day to day to support us and we are all aware of the pressures the NHS is constantly under.

This charity is particularly close to my heart….

As in February I was rushed into hospital after suffering a cardiac collapse and momentarily stopped breathing. Without the support and urgency shown from my partner , Paramedics, Dr’s, Nurses & Cardiac Specialists at the Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital I may have not had the support I needed to be back on my feet! 

So I wanted to give back using this years match funding. Each £1 you give will be doubled by Santander Bank!

We'll be travelling Thursday night to Cambridge, then up to Scotland on Friday July 14th to prepare to climb Ben Nevis early Saturday morning, from there we travel to Scarfell Pike (England) and then to the final climb of Snowden in Wales - all back to back   

There will be little to no sleep :( - over 800miles traveled and a lot of hiking in poor (thunderstorms) weather conditions.

I do appreciate I’ve just had your support from Everest but don’t just donate for me personally,  donate to help us raise the much needed critical funds for this important cause that supports those that looked after us in times of need  ❤️‍🩹
