Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
For the first time I shall be running a marathon. On the 24th April 2016 myself and colleague Elliot Upton will be doing the London marathon. We will be raising money for the coops charity partner the British Red Cross in order to tackle loneliness.
Loneliness affects people of all ages and backgrounds and can be found in all types of communities. It can lead to a sense of despair and emotional and mental health problems such as depression and anxiety.
Companionship , reconnected communities and better health and well being are the potential benefits that could be enjoyed by those communities that join together with the Co-operative to address this alarming hidden crisis on their doorsteps.
