Mental health is important to us all. If yoy sufferer from a diagnosed condition or not everyone mental health is a priority. So much so that I (Claire) is a volunteer and supports the charity Mental Health Mates as a walk leader for Mental health mates Chilterns and has been doing so for just over a year. Our walks may be small in numbers but our values and support behind mental health are huge. Running is something that has helped my own mental health after losing both parents and a number of personal battles to always say that getting outside to walk or run or just pottering around in the garden is something to be gratful off to just take my mind of something for even just a few short minites. Mind is a fantasic charity that supports us all, doesnt judge a single person and knows we all need our space to grow with the right support. Alex has never run until a few weeks ago. He wanted to do the london marathon after my 2nd london (3rd marathon) he wanted to orginally prove people wrong but after 3 10ks he realised how being outside with the right support it really did benefit his health not physically but mentally. That is why Mind Is such an important charity for us both.💙
