Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am raising as much money as possible for the 'Mind' Mental Health Charity. This Charity works with anyone who feels they need help or just want to talk to someone.
I didnt realise the statistics for Mental health illnesses until recently losing my older Brother Ross Matthews aged 25 who committed suicide from suffering with a Mental illness. From dealing with this tragedy i have realised that in many cases Mental Illnesses are not obviously spotted and come become very serious in a small amount of time. Throughout this time i was told that in the UK alone for every 1 Woman over 80 Men commit suicide. The age bracket of 15-30 is crucial for Mental Illness especially in Men.
People find it extremely hard to turn to someone or to take action on how they are feeling, this can be caused through many things such as; Anxiety, Depression, Stress, OCD, infact the list is endless.
I believe that this is a very serious disease that is not recognised as much as it needs to be.
People shouldnt be left to feel like they can not carry on and that they are alone. This is where 'Mind' help! They are a well respected charity that constantly work hard to raise awareness and most importantly help anyone who feels they need to.
