Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My story: “Back in 2019 I was going through some tough times and turned to Basildon Mind for support.  I also lost my Dad to COVID this year but the Counsellors at Mind helped me deal with this huge loss in my life, so I’ve now decided I want to give something back and help other people.  Running gives me focus and I think my Dad will be proud that I’m doing this.”  

On 5th November I’m going to be running 10km every day for 50 days - 500km in total - finishing on Christmas Eve, to raise mental health awareness and funds for the counselling services at Basildon Mind!  I will be running a different route each day in different towns around our local area, wearing the white BASILDON MIND t-shirt. So if you see me, cheer me on!  You can follow my progress on Basildon Mind’s social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram and Twitter). Any money you can spare will be very gratefully received and will be helping more children get the mental health support they so desperately need.  Thank you for taking the time to read this.  Wish me luck!
