In May I will be running the Manchester 10k, and aim to raise £500 for The Nest Farms.

The Nest is a mental health charity based in Suffolk, helping children and young adults learn to manage and understand their mental health. The sessions involve learning a variety of land-based skills that help grow independence and confidence, while providing personal support. This charity is very important to me, as my younger sister received support from The Nest for a period of time, and the positive impact on her mental health has been undeniable, helping her grow in confidence as a young adult.

As they are a start up charity, donations are fundamental in order to support the farm.

I know a 10k is not a massive run, but I am not a runner by any means! Any donations would be greatly appreciated!

I will be running with my friend, Lauren, who is raising money for Alzheimer's Society, so please feel free to also donate to her.
