Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I would love to raise some money for Mind as I believe the importance of a healthy mental state can’t be underestimated. I am starting the fundraising by taking part in Movember but the main event is the Manchester Marathon next year. I am aware Movember is a charity in its own right but I thought it best to start fundraising early for the Marathon.

Although I have done two half marathons I have never (at the time of writing) ran any further than a half marathon distance in one go. So the marathon will be a real challenge.

I have lost two people very close to me due to mental health problems and therefore cannot understate the importance of these types of charities. I hope we can raise some good money and change some people’s lives for the better.

I know this fundraiser is starting early as the marathon isn’t until the end of April but I thought the longer it’s going the more we can raise. Thank you. All donations are greatly appreciated.

I will provide updates on how the tache is getting on.
