Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On the 22nd of September, I will be running the Winchester Half Marathon for Winchester Youth Counselling.
Here is some text from the charity website that emphasises the importance of the cause:
"There is a youth mental health crisis.
More young people are struggling with their mental health than ever before and statutory mental health services cannot keep up with the demand.
The number of children in contact with Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) has increased fourfold since April 2016. (British Medical Association, 2023)"
I have used the services of a similar organisation in the past and know first-hand how impactful their work can be.
Running has been a source of wellness for me for the past couple of years, so this is the perfect fit.
Any contribution is welcome.
