Hello everyone, my name is Dan Copeland (copes) and I help coach port of Bristol u9s and tots. Not many people are aware that since childhood I have suffered with anxiety and mental health issues that have carried on into my adult life. Im sure there will be many of you who would think I’d be the last person you would associate with this Illness but unfortunately it’s an issue that affects the majority of us though to few seek help either because of embarrassment or the ‘stigma’ that comes with it. I am therefore planning to run a marathon 26.2 miles continuously around the PBA grounds on 25th sept at 1pm to raise much needed funds for ‘mind’ a Bristol based charity that helps all ages with all kinds of mental health issues. I am also hoping that this will encourage all of our super stars at the club that it’s ok to ask for help. There will be a go fund me page so any donations will be greatfully received. There will also be collections on the day so please come show your support and help this cause that’s not only close to my heart but probably someone you know too.
