Story

Here we go again.

After defeating the London 2 Brighton Challenge in May 2018, I thought it was time to put my body through hell once more. This time, the Isle of Wight shall be conquered by my squeaky boots. Gorgeous views of the coast shall accompany me on my journey, with the family not too far behind to provide plenty of snacks and support. 

I will be raising money for Mind, as mental health problems are on the rise. Life is far too stressful nowadays, and numerous factors such as high expectations, the dangerous world of social media and a general lack of time just makes everything worse. So many people are suffering in silence due to a fear of opening up, which only leads to further problems. 

Having experienced my own struggles with mental health, I want to do everything I can to support the work of Mind. Any donation will be greeted with a hearty thanks, since any help is greatly appreciated. Whether we raise £1 or £100,000,000, all that matters is that money is being donated to a noble cause. 

Strength and honour.
