Story
I'm fundraising for Dorset Mind to help SAVE LIVES. My target is £300 which could pay for wellbeing check in sessions for children and young people.
One of the reasons why I decided to support this charity is because of its significance and the tremendous effort that Dorset mind employ in people's lives. I greatly look forward to Sunday 2nd April 2023, where I will complete my 5K run to raise money for everyone suffering from a mental health illness.
I will run in memory of Gilly Hayes, a positive and generous friend of ours who dedicated herself to raising funds and awareness for mental health support until her tragic death in 2021 after a deterioration in her mental health.
So please donate anything you can to support an essential organisation!
