This October, I'll be taking part in the Royal Parks Half Marathon to raise money for Mind. Mind is a charity very close to my heart, both in my personal and work life. Working for Mind has taught me so much, especially that mental health support is needed now more than ever. I have been welcomed into the loveliest team and met so many amazing people, so I feel super lucky to be able to take part in this event to give back. I am farrrr from a runner, but I'm really excited to push myself out of my comfort zone and give it a go!

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and, if you are able, donating whatever you can. It will make a huge difference <3

(I'll also be documenting my journey along the way so follow along for some laughs!!)
