Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Hello Everyone. I am taking on a charity challenge for 2022.
I’m taking part in a selection of 10k runs throughout the year and hopefully some more surprise events. The page will be updated.

I will be running the following 10k's and Half Marathons 

1. Chester Zoo - 6th Febuary (Postponed till 3rd July)
2. Marches School - 27th Febuary
3. Shrewsbury - 13th March
4. Welshpool - 27th March
5. Llangollen - 8th May
6. Wrexham - 24th July
7. Aintree Half Marathon - 31st July *See update*
8. Ellesmere - 28th August
9. Oswestry - 16th October

I’m doing this to raise money for the charity Mind which help people suffering with mental health issues. I have chosen MIND because of the experiences me, my family and friends have had and hopefully the money will make a difference. Also to break some of the stigma surrounding mental health.

I’m also doing this challenge in memory of my mum Rachel Young who after a battle with Psychosis tragically took her own life on November 30^th 2019.

Mum was a proud hairdresser who ran her own Salon for many
years in Oswestry. She then moved away from the business side of the industry and went into education. She was a hairdressing tutor in our local college and helped many people (including me) on levels 1,2 and 3 hairdressing courses. A Wife, Mother, Daughter, Sister, Aunt, Grandmother ,Teacher, Friend. I miss her every day and want to honor her memory by raising money in her name. 

A big thank you to Mr B's Barbers Wrexham who are covering the entry fees for the races.

**Update ** I'm also running the Aintree Half Marathon on the 31st of July.
