Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving Page. I am taking part in the 50K Ultra Challenge on 1st April 2023. 

I will be raising money for MIND charity. Why?

At the end of 2019, I made some questionable decisions that would shape the next few years of my life. A series of events happened in my work and personal life which lead me to hit rock bottom. I became a prisoner in my own home, spending up to 9 hours a day watching the TV and eating massive packs of biscuits gaining pound after pound 

2020 COVID hit and I gained a considerable amount of weight and tipped the scales at a weight I’m still to embarrassed to share!  The end of 2020 I made the decision that 2021 was going to be my year to take control of both my mental and physical health again. I spent the whole year investing in things that will enhance my life for the better. I saw the specialists in each field in both mind and body. 

Its nearly the end of 2021, I have lost 7 stone, walk a minimum of 6-10k everyday with my cocker spaniel in tow, across coastal footpaths or on the moors. In January 2021, After a few failed attempts at traditional “counselling”  My husband booked me in with one of the best Intervention Therapists in the UK. He worked his absolute magic, However I realise not everyone has that option. So that’s why I’m raising money for MIND… on the end of a phone for ANYONE who needs help and support. 

I look at life differently everyday. Appreciate everything I have and absolutely prefer to live the quiet life in the great outdoors with a small circle of “real friends”. I have never felt fitter, stronger and healthier inside and out. It really does all start with your mindset 

No one should ever suffer alone, MIND Charity can help and they need our support now more than ever

I have set myself the ultimate challenge 50k across the SW coastal footpath  in less than 15 hours! Lets do this :)
