I am very fortunate to receive a place to run the Berlin Marathon in 2023 for Isle Listen! 

Why am I running for Isle Listen?

I am the Schools Team Lead at Isle Listen with a fantastic team of 10  who are passionate about supporting young people with their mental health. 

Our Wellbeing Facilitators work within secondary and primary schools, with children as young as 8 years old, educating students about mental health through classroom-based sessions and assemblies. 

Within secondary schools we offer a confidential low level 1-to-1 listening service in which our Wellbeing Practitioners help students to manage their feelings with concerns such as exam pressure, friendship worries, bullying, social media difficulties and low self-esteem.

All our work is centered around early intervention and prevention; helping to avoid the unnecessary escalation of mental health problems.

All our mental health support for young people is provided free of charge, but to do this, we rely on charitable fundraising.

Thank you very much for your support to help us continue our vital work in our community.
