I have chosen to run for this charity because never before has raising awareness for mental health issues been so important. 1 in 4 people in the UK alone currently suffer from mental illnesses that affect their wellbeing, relationships with family and friends, and ability to work. This year has been especially challenging for so many people. Through my own experiences as a university student sadly I know many people who have struggled with their mental health. With this in mind there seems like no better time to be raising money for a charity supporting those who suffer mentally. These 26.2188 miles (even the 0.0188) will be a mental challenge for myself. 

Any donations to the target to support a charity that does so much amazing work in the field of mental health will be greatly appreciated. 

Love Oscar xo
