This year I am taking part in the Great North Run to raise money for Mind.

Mind is a mental health support charity who I have used myself. In 2024 my dad passed away from suicide after battling with his own mental health. My aim is to raise as much support and awareness for different mental health and suicide prevention charities for as long as I am able to. The support I received from Mind after losing my dad was second to none and I know they help a lot of other people.

It’s so important to support those struggling whether it be a bad time or a lifelong battle. Mental health for men is something I hope to raise as much awareness as possible for and something I care about very much.

Thank you so much for any support on this journey and as always… this one’s for you dad x
