I am taking part in Dorset Minds Big Walk accompanied by my Son, Sam Billington, I'm not sure I'll make the full 26.2 miles due to recent health issues, but I intend to walk as many miles as I can. As many of you know, Dorset Mind is a charity close to my heart. The need for mental health support in Dorset has never been greater than it is right now. Mental health problems can affect anyone at any point in their life. Around one in four adults will suffer from some form of diagnosable mental health problem during their lifetime and currently 40% of children and young people are suffering with mental health illness.
