Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I’ll be running Paris marathon on April 7 th 2024 .
I have struggled with mental health most of my life. I have suffered it all; depression, anxiety, panic attack, unhappiness etc. Though there was professional help available, the biggest challenge was to recognise that there was actually an problem and get diagnosed. Also accepting mental health issue was very challenging. Even after all the help available, I always felt that there was a missing link between me and the professional help. Someone which could help me recognise the problem and help me accept it. And once I had accepted it, show me the way forward and direct me to the range of professional help available.
While I was struggling for that missing link, I came across Sangeet Foundation and I could just related with them.
Sangeet Foundation is a registered charity in the United Kingdom (Charity Reg Number: 1195762).

4. To engage and collaborate with governmental bodies like NHS trust charities and non governmental organisations across UK and India.
