Story

So... after years of going on and on about how one day I’m going to do a marathon, I’ve finally decided to give you all a break and just get on with it. I've just signed up to run the London Marathon next year in April!!

I’ll be dragging myself through it and will be putting up a real good fight, as I'll be running for a very important cause that means a lot to me, a mental health charity Mind who are doing incredible work here in the UK.

Over the years, mental health is something that’s affected me and people I love deeply. I’m so so grateful for the right support, right resources and right infrastructure we have here in the UK, and have witnessed first-hand how much of a difference this truly can make in people’s lives. I’ve seen how the right help, combined with the strength to reach for it can truly empower people to take back control of their lives.

Now it’s my turn to tap into that strength that so many others have shown in overcoming mental challenges. Training for this marathon will absolutely be pushing me far outside my comfort zone - mentally, physically, and emotionally for sure!! But if they can do it, I can do it too!!

Whether you can donate £1 or £100, I’ll be eternally grateful. I will pay my debts in alll the baked goods and treats.

Thank you for all your support!!! <3
