I have faced the challenges of poor mental health, and I understand how difficult it can be to find the support you need. My journey has been greatly aided by the incredible services provided by Leeds Mind. This organization is a beacon of hope for many, and I am determined to raise funds to ensure they can continue their vital work, helping others who are in need of assistance.

As someone with autism, I have discovered that running is not just a passion; it is a powerful tool for my mental well-being. What better way to support Leeds Mind than by participating in the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon on May 11, 2025? This event represents not only a personal challenge but also an opportunity to advocate for those who struggle with mental health issues.

Leeds Mind empowers individuals in Leeds and surrounding areas to tap into their own resources and recover from periods of poor mental health. They help people live independently while managing their conditions. With statistics showing that 1 in 4 people will experience mental health difficulties at some point in their lives—whether it be depression, anxiety, isolation, or other challenges—Leeds Mind stands ready to support them.

I am asking for your help. My target is to raise £500 for this remarkable charity. Your contribution will make a significant difference in ensuring that Leeds Mind can continue providing essential services to those who need them most. Together, we can create a brighter future for individuals facing mental health challenges.
