Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!...Those that know me will likely be blown away that i'm running at all! :P

I've never run a marathon or anything of the sort and as a new years resolution (better late than never!) I've signed up to run the Great Scottish Bank of Scotland Half Marathon later this month in aid of Mental Health UK.

Mental Health affects 1 in 4 people a year, and although a lot has been done to improve awareness and the services available, there is still a long way to go.

Today being World Suicide Prevention Day I thought it was about time i got my JustGiving page up and running...
I deal with bereavement every day through my work and sadly, suicides are all too common. Most will be aware of the stats but suicide is still a taboo subject for most and this needs to change.

Mental Health UK is the offical charity partnered with my work, Scottish Widows and Lloyds Banking Group and I thank you for helping my raise money for this cause - Please visit their website and have a read... https://mentalhealth-uk.org/
