Story
Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Me and Jordan will be taking part in Tough Mudder on the 4th of May 2019. With no background in running; myself being a yoga enthusiast and with only 12 weeks to go.. we thought this would be the perfect starting point to help raise money for Mind, the mental health charity.
Our friend Toby Group had been suffering with depression since second year of University (his first degree), in November 2018 he committed suicide, leaving myself and many people devastated at the loss of an amazing person.
I personally feel that mental health is not talked about enough and it is so important throughout life, from childhood to adulthood. I want to help raise awareness about mental health, how to cope with it and that there is support from charities such as Mind.
For myself, this will be the first of many events I will be participating in to raise money and awareness for mental health. Overcoming the loss of Toby has been hard and if I can help prevent anyone in the future from taking their own life by taking part in Tough Mudders, Triathlons, London & Brighton Marathons... then that is what I will do.
Thank you so much for reading, it means a lot.
RIP Toby Group
