I'm taking on Mind's 100 miles in March challenge.

This is a cause that is truly important to me. I have struggled with my mental health for many years and expect to do so for the rest of my life. It can be debilitating. Some days I can't get out of bed. I have lost jobs. I have felt like a failure. But I'm one of the lucky ones - I have a good support system of family and friends. Many don't. 

The UK needs to do better at supporting people with mental health conditions. Much more funding and resources are needed. Mind is trying to make that happen.

In the UK, 1 in 4 of us will experience a mental health problem this year. Mind needs your help so that they can be there for anyone who needs them, on the phone, in local communities, and campaigning for change. 

Please support my 100 miles in March challenge by donating to my fundraising page. You donation will help ensure that information and support is available for everyone - on Mind's website, the helplines they run and throughout their online community, Side by Side. 

Thank you
