Story

Thanks for visiting my page and (hopefully) sponsoring me - I really hate asking for money so honestly thank you. I'm running 10k for Changes Bristol. It will be 'virtual' as the race won't happen as planned, but instead I will run it on my own. I have 2.5 weeks from signing up (14th April) to the day of the race, 3rd May! I am not a big lover of running to be honest and am currently running up to 5km so need to double my distance in that time. Always up for a challenge...

I'm raising money for Changes Bristol because they provide support for anyone and everyone who needs to talk, for free. Mental health is really important and will always be an issue close to my heart. I've struggled with my own mental health and I lost my grandma to mental health issues. 10 years on I want to do something for her memory. My gran is also struggling due to Alzheimers.

It's okay to not be okay.
