I'm running to 10 different Birmingham Mind locations before the Great Birmingham Run on the 4th May! *
I've left this late to set up a fundraising page, as I was a bit worried I'd not make it, but have been busy training the last 2 months and wanted to find a different way to raise some money for our charity this year.
Last year in our Impact Report we highlighted just how many different places our teams deliver our services from every year. That can include care homes, wellbeing hubs or community cafes - wherever we are needed. We're really proud of how much of the city we cover, and whilst I'd like to tick off every one of them, I've picked out 10 places to run to and share a bit of information about on here before I reach the start line in three weeks time.
We couldn't deliver many of these services without our fundraised income - in the last few years has meant we can open new services like the brilliant Bullring Hub. We're so thankful for those who are able to donate, and the 25 others also running the event!
This has been meticulously planned (i.e. I've Google Mapped it), though will I accidentally find myself running through Spaghetti Junction at some point? Who can say.
If you are able to spare anything to donate then I'd be really grateful - my JustGiving link is below. I will share my poorly taken photos and give some snapshots of each service here - so watch this space!
