In october i am running Royal Parks Half marathon for a charity that i think brings everyone together, there’s something throughout all charities that affects everyone which is mental health. Mind is a charity that anyone with mental health, from depression to dementia and everything inbetween they’ll be there to help anyone and everyone suffering. 1 in 4 people suffer from mental health, 1 in 15 people attempt suicide. mental health/illness is something that can affect everyone and can be a very heavy subject. i have friends that i hold very close to my heart who i know are suffering or have suffered, i’m forever proud of them and i love them dearly. mind is also supporting my nan helping her and my family with her dementia diagnosis.

so, it’s okay to not be okay however it’s not okay to suffer in silence.

i couldn’t think of a better charity to run for, bring on the 13.1 miles 🫣
