I’m taking part in the great south run in October this year. I decided to take part as a personal challenge but also to raise money for mental health charity Mind.
During my degree I focused on human behaviour and mental health for some of my work. Whilst doing this I researched into mental health and read a lot of people’s personal accounts of how they had been affected. Many of the accounts I read didn’t have anyone to speak to about it and they felt completely isolated. Mind are doing amazing work to ensure that more people with mental health problems get the support they need! I also hope that it helps people have more of a true understanding regarding mental health, instead of the stereotypical connotations that are associated.
