Running a marathon for healthier heads

Charlie Rio is raising money for The Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand

Queenstown Marathon 2025 · 15 November 2025

Like physical health, mental health is something we all have, and we need to look after it. After all, there is no health without mental health. For almost 50 years the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand has been the leading charity promoting good mental health and wellbeing and the rights of those experiencing mental health challenges. We uplift. And we fight. We campaign hard so anyone experiencing mental distress gets respect and support. We strive to reach everyone in Aotearoa and have a measurable impact on their mental health and wellbeing.

Story

I’m gonna be running the Queenstown Marathon for the Mental Health Foundation because mental health is something that affects us all. Too many people I know and care about have gone through tough times, and I want to do my bit to help. The Mental Health Foundation is out there every day making sure Kiwis have the tools and support they need to look after their wellbeing.

Backing my run means backing healthier minds all over Aotearoa. Every dollar/pound counts!

Much love x
