The mental well being of young people is a subject extremely close to my heart. Over the last few years I have had to learn a great deal about mental health and the devastating effects it can have on a young mind. I have also seen how strength, focus and determination along with a great team of people and supportive family and friends near by can enable a young mind to learn the tools to not just overcome trauma and mental illness but how to cope, grow and blossom into health and help others along the way.

I started my running journey at the beginning of this year in January 2019. I have now ran so many races with my other crazy five friends! We completed the Manchester Marathon on 2021 my proudest athletic achievement! We are now onto our next challenge which is the Jurassic Coast 100k continuous walk. 

I wanted to add purpose to my  journey and representing Young Minds is simply perfect for me. I want to raise awareness and help others to know there is help, there is support and there is a positive path to a healthy mind. 

Please support me in any way you can. I am proud of my accomplishments so far but even prouder to become a hero for Young Minds.
