Story
I'm taking on Mind's 56 miles in February challenge. Due to recovering injuries i will be walking and slowly progressing to running during the month!
I lost my Dad in January of 2021 due to him taking his own life. This created a shockwave of emotions surrounding my family. Suicide is a leading cause of deaths in 10-19 year olds and Men under 50 in the UK. The Mind Charity creates a safe, accessible place for people who need help in times of crisis or mental struggle.
Now more than ever, people struggling from mental health problems need our support. 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. Mind is a charity which allow s individuals to understand and access support for their mental health!
Please support my 56 miles challenge by donating to my fundraiser. You donation will help to make sure that information and support is available for everyone - on Mind's website, the helplines they run and through their online community, Side by Side.
If you are unable to donate, please educate yourself of the amazing work Mind does around the UK to help our communities.
Thank you 🩷
