Story

Garden Cafe Runners is a ladies' running group running every wednesday from The Garden Cafe, which is one of the projects run by RESTORE. Penny, Kate and Ruth will be running the Oxford Half Marathon 2023 to raise money for RESTORE, our local charity which supports people recovering from mental health issues.

One in four people in the UK will experience mental ill health in their lifetime. Last year, Restore supported several hundred people experiencing mental ill health, helping a third of members into employment and a further third into volunteering or training.

Together, we can achieve more and encourage a wider environment that is more positive, tolerant and supportive.
