Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I originally signed up for Tough Mudder to challenge myself both physically and mentally, however, I then realised that I wasn’t going to put myself through hell for nothing, that I would try and raise money for a charity that I have supported for a while; Tameside, Oldham and Glossop Mind. 

More recently I have noticed the lack of awareness surrounding mental health.  Increasingly more people are in need of help and unfortunately waiting lists are that long that people go without the support they need.  Mind is a great charity which works locally to support those with mental health problems.  I have volunteered for Mind for nearly four years and have witnessed the great work and support that Mind has to offer.   

Having a mental illness such as depression or anxiety can be a very scary, dark and lonely place and I don’t think people should suffer in silence.  More needs to be done to challenge the stigma related to mental health and to help increase access to services.  I therefore plan on running the 12 mile Tough Mudder obstacle course to support Tameside, Oldham and Glossop Mind and to help raise awareness of mental health.

Thanks in advance for your kind donations.  If anything, I’m sure many of you will find the prospect of me crawling through mud, jumping in ice and being electrocuted rather amusing!  Here’s a link to the Tough Mudder website for you to check out: https://toughmudder.co.uk/events/what-is-tough-mudder - I’m actually terrified and convinced that I’m going to break something!! 

Thanks guys!
