Mind in Gwent is excited to launch our first ever Mental Elf 5km event! Join us on Sunday 1st December by the Riverfront, Newport in your best Elf outfit and help support people in our community who struggle with their mental health.

Mental Elf is a fun run with the emphasis on fun – we have 5k flat(ish) route for all ages to take part in. It doesn’t matter if you’re a seasoned runner or prefer a stroll to take in your surroundings, this event is for everyone!

This is a fun, festive event which focuses on bringing people together, not only to fundraise, but to raise awareness of mental health and wellbeing. It’s about coming together with your local community, to do something that’s good for you, whilst giving something back by helping to raise vital funds for Mind in Gwent.
