We are completing this formidable challenge to raise money for MIND BLMK and in memory of Leeanne McGhie. Our employee, Matt and his wife, Teresa McGhie, sadly lost their daughter Leeanne on the 5th of May 2018, age of only 32.

Since Leeanne’s late teens, she struggled with her mental health and 7 years before her death, Leeanne was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Despite having a diagnosis, Leeanne often felt misunderstood by doctors and mental health workers. In addition to this, access to the right services that could have helped her was either extremely limited or difficult to access at the time; therefore, Leeanne would often self-medicate with alcohol, which became an addiction that would ultimately lead to her losing her life.

Leeanne will forever be in the hearts and thoughts of all the McGhie family and friends. To ensure we can keep her memory alive and prevent another loss to mental health, we at FSG will be joining Matt in participating in this crazy 100K challenge!

Matt has been with FSG for over 16 years and we are humbled to support him in every way. All donations will go direct to MIND BLMK, which stands for MIND Bedford Luton Milton Keynes, and we would appreciate any amount you can donate.

Thank you for taking the time to read Matt & Teresa McGhie's story and please support us all and of course wish all of us at FSG Property Services Ltd  good luck!

Working closely with a range of partners, we offer a number of activities from our wellbeing centres and local venues to make a difference to the mental health and wellbeing of people in Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes, and our aim is to make sure that no-one has to face a mental health problem alone.
