1 in 4 of us have mental health problems, most of us don't get the help we need. As a result of this; I will both be running the Great North Run '23 to raise awareness & money for Mind, also in memory of our mum who we sadly lost in 2020. As well as the GNC; Hilly Marathon in May & Conwy Half Marathon later this year too. If we can reach our target (or more) and raise awareness for a charity that saves lives and has a supportive impact on people - it's a no brainer.
The mental health system in England and Wales just isn’t working right now. It’s overstretched, underfunded and people aren’t getting the support that they need. Mind is always pushing for a better system that works for everyone.
