Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Rachel, my family and I lost our beautiful son Luke James Forte to Mental Health last year December 2021.  

We are all devastated and each day is a battle.  However in memory of Luke, I am running the Great North Run for YoungMinds.  

Luke and I had planned to run this half marathon together, especially as it was on his Birthday 11th September 💛

Luke was very sporty and especially loved running and basketball.  We had both been looking forward to completing this run, with the view to raising funds for a charity.   

I will now honour Luke and complete this run for both of us, in the hope that I can help raise awareness of mental health, especially amongst young people.  

I would also like to raise awareness of the work, of the charity YoungMinds, helping young people in crisis.

If you would like to sponsor me, all of the money raised will go to support YoungMinds 💛🌻

Rachel and I, would like to thank you in advance for your support 💛🌻💛
