Great Bristol Half Marathon 2024 · 19 May 2024 ·

Bipolar UK is the national charity dedicated to supporting individuals and families with the much misunderstood and complex condition of bipolar. We support more than 80,000 individuals and families every year.

Story

After being diagnosed with Bipolar in 2020, our friend and colleague Megan sadly took her own life on December 12th 2022.

Meg’s bubbly personality and ability to lighten any room has left a lasting impression on us all at Indicia, one we want to honour by raising money for BipolarUK to help others fighting the same condition.

Meg’s friends and family have raised an incredible amount already through #muddymilesformegs and an Indicia Worldwide team will be running the Bristol half marathon on Sunday 19th May to add as much as we can to the total.

Please do give what you can and help to fight against this incredibly cruel and destructive condition.

Thank you

Team Indicia Worldwide
