Story
Six years after running the London Marathon for the first time, I'm lacing up my shoes for round three.
This year, I am raising money for Growing Well - a mental health charity and organic fruit & veg farm in the South Lake District. They help more than 100 people a year recover from poor mental health through professionally supported activity, courses on life skills, managing mental health and getting work ready, and horticulture training.
Growing Well have an established farm near Kendall and have recently opened another garden at Tebay Services. Volunteers, (who can be referred by GPs, other health services, or refer themselves); can rebuild confidence, learn new skills, benefit from peer support and be helped to achieve their goals, such as returning to employment or education, or simply gaining confidence and feeling better.
I'd be very grateful for donations of any size towards this deserving charity - thank you :) X
