Story

Leeds Mind is a charity that provides support to those who are struggling with their mental health. They help people discover their own resources to recover from periods of poor mental health and live life independently with their mental health condition. With 1 in 4 people experiencing mental health difficulties in their lives, Leeds Mind is an essential resource for the community. Whether it's depression, anxiety, isolation, stress, self-harm, personality disorder, bereavement or any other negative mental health experience, Leeds Mind is here to help.

We are fundraising for Leeds Mind and our target amount is £100. Every donation counts towards helping someone in need. With your support, we can make a difference in someone's life and help them on their journey towards recovery.

Please consider donating to this worthy cause and helping us reach our goal. Your contribution will make a significant impact on the lives of those struggling with their mental health.

My name is Russ and may mate is Andy, - and I (Russ) have mental health issues. I have been in dark places and I have had mental health counselling. I am not afraid to say so and I am not afraid to talk about it. But many are. I know - and I believe we all suffer at some point in our lives. I know that many are not as lucky as me to have great family and friends who helped me realise I needed help.

Please please please help me and Andy to help this great Charity to help those who need it more than I/we do!!!

We are not just asking for a donation in these hard and expensive times for just living - in return we are going to do what might be described as a "stupid thing" - we are going to do a Firewalk in Leeds on Thursday 2nd November!. Together we will "mind over matter" this event - we will also video it! So please - sponsor me AND Andy to do this to help those who need some help!!!!
