Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm running the Cardiff Half-Marathon this year to raise some money towards the work of Mind.  It's a great organisation that supports people of all ages, to ensure that support and care is available when anyone has a rough time with their mental health... and that person could be you or me.

I'm a priest living in Llantwit Major, and working in the churches and communities of the Glamorgan Heritage Coast.  For the last 5 years, we've been working hard to support good mental health within this community, and the churches have been at the heart of this.  When conversations about yours and my mental health become part of everyday life, then it's so much easier to support each other, if life gets stressed... difficult... or just too much to cope with.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

I'll be so grateful if you can support my fundraising for Mind... and even if you just hold me in your prayers (or in your 'Mind') on 1st October, that will certainly help over the 13 miles!

... and don't forget, we ALL have mental health: sometimes it's fine... sometimes it gets a bit out of balance... sometimes it needs a change of lifestyle... and sometimes we need help on the journey, just to get us through.
