This January, I am taking part in Mind’s RED January, meaning I’ll be getting active every day throughout the month. Mind came into my life when my Dad committed suicide in March 2017 and I’d love you to help me go the extra mile to raise money for them. Mind are a phenomenal charity who do so much work for mental health support and awareness, including suicide prevention. 

I tend to find the start of a New Year difficult, filled with the weight of expectation on dark and cold days and what feels like the ticking time bomb of my Dad’s impending anniversary. So, seeing as over the years I’ve found getting active and moving to be revolutionary for my own mental health - and I know my dad used weight training for the same benefits - it seems only fitting to take part in RED January to beat these January Blues! For myself and for my Dad.

Please donate anything that you can manage and if you can’t manage anything, please just share my page. Happy New Year x
