This April, I'm running the London Landmarks Half Marathon for Mind CHWF, the mental health charity serving my borough of Hackney. MIND does some amazing work empowering individuals, fighting for change, and helping to build a society where mental health matters.

Each year, one in four of us will experience a mental health problem, and this figure is only set to grow due to the cumulative effects of rising socioeconomic pressures, the long-term impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic and inadequate resources within the UK Mental Healthcare system. That's why I've decided to support Mind CHWF - they offer a range of support to members of the East London community who are in desperate need of professional help.

I would be grateful if each and every one of you reading would consider donating however much you can spare for this amazing cause.

Thank you so much for your support!
