I was fortunate enough to get a ballot space on the London marathon, after 7 years of being cocky with the “no one gets a ballot space” so I thought about deleting the email pretending it never happened 😂 but then decided why not just go with it, what else have I got to do?

So after careful consideration I have chosen young minds to raise some money for my efforts, it’s personally important to me for many reasons but ultimately, I’m a strong believer that quiet often mental health steams from childhood, and with the right help from a young age, hopefully this charity can make a difference to our future generations of adults 💛
