Hi everyone 👋
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my page. I am beyond excited to share that I will be running the 2024 London Marathon with Buxton supporting Mind Charity!
Tbh I'm in utter disbelief that I'm even saying this. After applying for the ballot 10 years in a row I never thought this would be happening but here we are!
I'm really proud to be running in support of such a fantastic charity that offers support for a vast array of mental health issues through public campaigns, government lobbying and 1000+ 'local Minds' services, especially at a time when people's mental well-being is being challenged more than ever.
As someone who has struggled with my mental health in the past particularly when it comes to anxiety and burnout at work it is very fitting that this opportunity has presented itself at this time in my life. In July I took a massive leap and started a whole new career at Nestlé UK and my mental health has improved tenfold thanks to their genuine care for people's well-being and the wonderful supportive people in my team.
It feels like the stars have truly aligned and I'm excited to tackle this crazy, scary, exciting challenge at a time when I'm in a better headspace and with a great team around me in my friends, family and colleagues.
Thanks in advance for your support in helping me raise much needed funds for Mind x
