Story
I am currently taking part in a charity fight night in order to raise money for the mental health charity Mind.
It’s an 8 week training programme, where I will be learning Muay Thai, with fight night happening on September 18th at the Troxy in London.
I know this will be a challenge for me physically as I have Sickle Cell Disorder. It’s a debilitating illness, where I suffer chronic pain daily. Mentally, I dip in and out of depression based on the fluctuations of this illness. A Consultant once referred to it as ‘Circular Depression’. So for me this is a perpetual cycle that I am learning to live with. This is one of the many reasons why supporting Mind is important to me.
At some stage in our life, we will all have been or have met someone who has difficulties with their mental health. Please join me in supporting those who struggle. Please sponsor me via my JustGiving page, buy tickets to Fight Night, or simply share my post. Every effort helps, and I will be eternally grateful.
I will keep you updated with training progress via my social media pages mentioned below.
