As most of you know I work with the Scottish Ambulance Service. When I joined I knew I would face trauma, death and extreme emotions however nothing prepares you for the reality of these events. I love my job and so does my colleagues but we are human and sometimes the things we deal with effect our mental health. Blue Light minds is an amazing charity that supports all staff within the emergency services and supports us through our tough times.

On 2nd August I am taking on a challenge, I am cycling through the grizedale forest-12km, hiking the old man of coniston- 11km and then kayaking 2km on lake coniston. My training hasn't gone to plan but I'm stubborn enough to complete this challenge. If anybody can spare a few pounds to donate to Blue Light Minds it will give me the motivation to complete this challenge.
