Hello! I’m excited (and VERY nervous!) to take on my very first Parish Walk on 20 June 2026, and I’ve chosen to support Ed Space, a charity dedicated to mental health on the Isle of Man. Over the past few years, I’ve faced some tough times with my own mental health, and I know many others around me have too. It wasn’t until I opened up and shared my struggles with someone that I truly felt a huge weight lift off my shoulders.

One thing that’s really helped me cope is simply putting on some headphones and going for a walk — whether alone or with a friend. It’s amazing how something so simple can make such a big difference. That’s why I’m walking in the Parish Walk: to raise awareness and funds for those who need support just like I did.

I’m aiming to raise £500 to help Ed Space continue their vital work. Every donation, no matter the size, will make an impact.
