Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Dave Green, Pete Martin and Greg Hollingsworth are taking on a challenge in 2023 to run 26 5k Parkruns at 26 different venues - each parkrun will correspond to letters of the alphabet with the first parkrun set to take place on New Year’s Day 2023 in Braunstone, Leicestershire, and then ranging from Ashbourne (A) in Derbyshire to Zuiderpark (Z) in the Netherlands!

We wanted to take the Lamp5k across the country and even into Europe in 2023 to raise much needed funds. We all run together anyway so we’ll also use the runs as an opportunity to raise awareness of mental health, the importance of the advocacy services that Lamp provides, as well as highlighting the benefits of physical exercise on improving wellbeing

About the charity

Mental Health is complex. Our advocacy work involves, listening, guiding, planning, supporting and ensuring their needs are properly considered. Mental Health cannot be ‘cured’ with one conversation, it takes time to form trust. Our advocates devote hours, days, months to provide the best support.
