Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 13 December 2017 I'm attempting to run 152 miles around Greater London in under 48 hours.

I was diagnosed with PTSD almost 3 years ago and have had major issues with anxiety and depression.  The support I have had has been fantastic but I am all too aware that there are people who have to travel very long distances and have to wait months just for an initial consultation.

I am doing this challenge to try and highlight the struggle some people have with mental illness, a lot of the time in silence. I also want to get across that even though you may be suffering with a wide range of illnesses, it isn't the end.  You can fight through and carry on and with the right help and support you can achieve any goal you set yourself!!!!!
