Mental Health Concern provides life-changing support to improve mental health and wellbeing. Compassion and a focus on recovery is at the heart of all we do, and together with our sister organisation, Insight Healthcare, our specialist services support thousands of people each year. Your kind donations go into our Extra Mile Fund for creative projects and activities to further enrich the lives of the people we serve.

I am raising funds for the South Tyneside branch of Mental Health Concerns, called  MOVING FORWARD. I want to highlight mental health issues particularly in our young people. This was a charity close to Leah’s heart. My run is in memory of Leah and also in memory my nephew Tommy. They were two fantastic young people who left this life too early.
