Thanks for landing on my JustGiving page. I am running the London Marathon this year, fundraising for Mind, and would really appreciate any support you are able to give.

The last few years in particular have taken a mental toll on many of us. No one should have to suffer alone; Mind is there to make sure everyone - those living with mental health problems and those that support them - can access the help, information and care they need. 

I've always run, and it is an important part of how I look after my own mental health. That being said, I am much more comfortable with shorter distances: my weekly parkrun 5k or an amble along the river. I have said (repeatedly!) over the years that I'd never run a marathon (too hard on the knees...). However, my impending 40th birthday prompted me to apply for a place at London 2022. I'm hoping the adrenaline hit of running it will measure up to the one I got on finding out I'd got a spot!

Thank you for your support!
