Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am looking to raise awareness and money for Mind. A charity that has become close to my heart following the death of my cousin Paresh.
Myself and other members of my family and friends are looking to do three half Marathons in three consecutive weeks. Starting with Cheltenham on the 29th September, Leicester the following week and finishing in Birmingham the week after.
MIND is a Mental Health charity, whose aim is to provide support and respect to everyone experiencing a mental health problem. Some examples of Mental Health problems are; anxiety, bulimia, depression, anorexia, suicidal thoughts, OCD and Bi-polar disorder.
I want to raise awareness of Mental Health - with the hope that it becomes the norm to consider our mental health with the same careful regard as we consider our physical health, and then maybe the future generations will know the importance of ‘talking’ - about the good days and the bad days. First though, we have to get rid of the stigma attached to mental health – as Mind say – It’s time to talk, it’s Time to Change.
