Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The last year and more has been so hard for many of us and I believe that the mental health of a so many of us has been effected in some way. Mental health charities are close to my heart and yet so underfunded and over stretched at this time. One of my closest friends works directly with a Mental health charity and while a challenging job, I love to hear the really good things charities can do to support their clients and the wider community.

Young people have had it tough in particular with so much disruption to their education and 'normal life' and as a mother to 2 wonderful step children, I really want to support a charity that can help and support young people of a similar age to them.

What will I be doing:

During the month of September as part of a team of work colleagues from across Europe, I will be committing to completing an Olympic Triathlon Distance per week, every week in July. I will be in total swimming 6k, running 40k and cycling 160k. Swimming is a huge challenge for me as I haven't swam properly since school, when I was put off by our terrible outdoor pool! 

If you can make a donation of any size, it would be much appreciated as I would love to smash my target for an amazing charity.
