I thought it was about time that I put all my running to good use and raise money for a cause that I really care about! This October, I will be taking on the Manchester Half Marathon to raise money and awareness for the mental health charity, Mind.

Those who know me know that mental health is something that means a lot to me and it’s no secret that it still isn’t given the priority it deserves, despite it being proven time and time again how devastating it can be if it’s left untreated.

Running is also something that has helped me so much with my own mental health over the last couple of years, so I thought it would be fitting to run a race for a fantastic charity like Mind, who do amazing work to raise awareness on mental health and provide the necessary resources for those who need it.

I won’t be able to do it without your help, so any contribution, big or small, would be hugely appreciated.

Thank you all so much 🫶🏼
