Me and some of my teammates are running the Great North Run a half marathon and are raising money for Mind. Mind is an organisation that we think is important as it provides advice and support to empower anyone experiencing a mental health problem. As a footballer I am aware how sport can help people’s health and wellbeing. And specifically mind provide a free support service to members of the public and campaign for all individuals to be treated fairly

The money I raise for mind can help to improve services, raise awareness and promote understanding of mental health problems. For over 60 years mind has worked to improve the lives of people with experience of mental healths problems, I would like to be able to do my part to help this continue. Thank you for any donations.
