I'm raising money for bigmoose because of the amazing work that they do supporting people with their mental health (their story is below). Last year bigmoose helped us and provided support for our eldest and I'd like to give something back as a way of saying thank you but also to ensure that others in our position can have access to the amazing support that they offer. 

To raise money this year I am completing a the bigmoose ultra fun run (50k), Newport Marathon (which will be my first ever Marathon distance race) and the Epona 100, which is 100 miles around the black mountains, climbing 17,000 feet as part of the race and 23 mountains. 

bigmoose's story

during lockdown we were providing therapy for lots of people and were told by five people that without our intervention they would have ended their lives.due to early and impactful intervention 5 people were still alive. 5 families weren't grieving and the world still had these amazing humans in it. we listened to people's stories & one thing that we kept hearing was that the therapy & intervention that people needed was taking too long and was inaccessible for so many. and so, just like that, project 1 million was born. throughout 2022 we are aiming to raise £1,000,000 which will be used to provide therapy and early intervention for people.this is a huge goal and we cannot do it alone. our goal is to help people with their mental health, prevent suicide and reduce homelessness. we will achieve our goal and we will save lives. in 2020, 5224 people killed themselves in england and wales. this project will help to reduce this number. we hope you will join us.
