North Yorkshire Ultra Challenge 2026 · 20 June 2026 ·

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In June, I'll be taking on another Ultra Challenge to support Scarborough, Whitby and Ryedale Mind.

Awareness continues to grow around the challenges that many of us face with our mental health, especially in sea-side and rural communities. The need for support is overwhelming and waiting lists for services like counselling means so many people are not getting the help they need.

SWR Mind are an amazing team of people who work in partnership to ensure that people with mental ill health in our area have access to personalised support that empowers and enriches their lives.

The Ultra Challenge I'll be taking on is the 50k (30 mile) walk from Whitby to Scarborough. For details on the event, visit https://www.ultrachallenge.com/north-yorks-challenge/

If you would like to support the work that SWR Mind do, please consider sponsoring me. For a list of the amazing services they offer, please visit https://swrmind.org.uk/services/
