Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!

I will be running the Race to the Stones 100km (non-stop) 2025. I'm laying down the gauntlet and predicting (and hoping) for a sub-14hr finish time.

How common are mental health problems?

1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem of some kind each year in England 

1 in 6 people report experiencing a common mental health problem (like anxiety and depression) in any given week in England

Specific diagnoses (In any given week in England)

Mixed anxiety and depression: 8 in 100 people

Generalised anxiety disorder (GAD): 6 in 100 people

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): 4 in 100 people

Depression: 3 in 100 people

Phobias: 2 in 100 people

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD): 1 in 100 people

Panic disorder: fewer than 1 in 100 people.

A person's diagnosis may change several times during their life. Some complex conditions are measured by how many people will be given this diagnosis over the course of their lifetime, or in any given year.

While the target is £1,500. I would love to see this smashed to help those in need and to raise awareness for mental health. Just because you cant see it, that doesn't mean it's not there.
