Hey Everyone!

I’m excited to share that I will be running the Lake Garda Marathon in April 2025 to raise money for Mind, a mental health charity that has personally helped me in the past.

Running a marathon has been on my bucket list and I have finally decided to make it a reality while supporting a cause that’s close to my heart. Having personally experienced a wait of over three years to access therapy, I know how isolating it can feel when you are in desperate need of support but can't get it.

During that time, Mind was there for me and offered guidance and resources that made a real difference when I needed it the most. Sadly many people face this - they are either stuck on long NHS waiting lists or unable to afford private therapy, leaving them feeling lost and alone.

Thankfully, I’m in a much better place now and falling in love with movement has been a big part of my journey. Running and staying active has had such a big impact on my mental health, which makes this marathon even more meaningful to me.

If you are able to, I’d be very grateful for any donation, no matter the amount. Every contribution will help Mind offer support to those in need and raise awareness of mental health.

Thank you so much for your support. With your help, we can help raise awareness and ensure that everyone has access to the mental health support they need, when they need it most.
