As most of you are aware I’m running an ultra marathon on the 7th June, the Lake District Ultra challenge. Never running a marathon before I’m not sure how I’ve found myself here, but I like to say yes to things without thinking things through properly 😆 I’m pretty terrified at this point with a month to go 🫢

I’ve been raising money for dementia UK, a cause close to my heart and thanks to everyone’s kind donations I have surpassed my target. I am so grateful to everyone who has donated so far. As I have quite a few friends yet to donate, I decided I really wanted to use the last month to raise money for a local charity now and decided on Counselling in the community, a Blackpool based charity that supports anyone suffering with mental health, from children Aged 4 through to adults. Mental health is another cause very close to my heart having seen the direct impact this has had within my family. I have only set a small target that I am hoping I can hit over the next month to support this wonderful charity.

Counselling in the community - We’re a Blackpool-based counselling charity offering affordable, compassionate support for children aged 4+, young people, and adults.
