On 29th June 2020, I lost my mom to alcoholism after a long and painful 15-year battle with addiction.

My mom was one of the warmest, kindest, most generous people I've ever known. But she suffered from a disease that slowly took pieces of her away - and eventually, took her life.

Mental health and addiction have deeply affected my family, and they continue to shape who I am today. As a mental health advocate, I'm honoured to be hosting this run in her memory - and fundraising for Mind, a charity doing incredible work to support people facing similar battles.

Join me on the 5-year anniversary of her passing to honour her courage and strength with every step of the final mile of her fight. This will be a gentle, supportive run - no need for speed!! Walking is more than welcome!

Whether you or your family have been touched by mental health and addiction, you're navigating your own grief, or you simply want to support the cause - everyone is welcome <3

We will meet at The Bandstand in Battersea Park at 10am on June 29th. After the run, we will have a casual social at The Pear Tree Cafe for anyone who is free to join!

Can't wait to see you there and spend the morning together <3
