Most people know I struggle with my mental health, and I'm lucky that I have family and friends I can talk to.
But sometimes it's not that easy. Sometimes it's easier to talk to someone you don't know because if they don't know you, they can't judge you. I used them before I was diagnosed with depression, and it gave me the nudge I needed to speak to my GP.
Samaritans provide an invaluable service, but it costs £5 to answer a call from someone who needs some support, and they receive more than 10,000 calls a day. Whatever you can afford to give would be amazing, and my work will match my fundraising (up to £200).
Cassie and Stu will be doing this with me - it's no secret I have a very sedentary lifestyle so whilst 50 miles doesn't seem like much to some, it will give me a push to get moving every day!
