Lee Valley Half Marathon · 23 March 2025

Mental health has come a long way but too many of us still have to fight to get help. There was already a mental health emergency before coronavirus. But the pandemic has increased the scale of need in the nation’s mental health. Together we fight - for support, for respect. for you.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page. Please donate generously, and read below to understand why.

Siva's Story

Siva was one of my best friends for 22 years. In August 2020, Siva sadly took his own life. You never think something like this will happen to someone you know...until it does, and life changes forever.

Reverently, we remember Siva the way he should be remembered: pure, generous and the life and soul of any party. We also keep his memory alive by supporting, in rememberance, the causes that were close to his heart.

Mental health is a huge and growing problem in our society. Mental health organisations rely on our support to reach people like Siva.

Siva supported T&B Mind, and T&B Mind tried to help him before he died.

Fundraising

I am therefore running the Lee Valley Half Marathon in March 2025, to fundraise for T&B Mind in Siva's memory. As with previous years, my fundraising target is £1,000. I absolutely need your help to hit this target.

I personally know the people at T&B Mind, who will use this money to make a real difference to people struggling with their mental health today.

Any donation and/or sharing of this page mean a great deal, both to me and to T&B Mind. Make sure to tag Gift Aid when donating, as the charity receives extra money at no cost to you. Thank you, Aaron xxxx
