Hi there,

I'm raising money for the charity Mind, supporting the mental health of everyone.

Depression and anxiety are a part of my everyday life and, for the most part, manageable with support. Occasionally, I begin to lose the upper hand on it all. Very recently, I relied on Mind services during an unfortunate period of crisis. Both the phone line and their in-person centres offered refuge at a very dark time.

I am slowly on the mend, and have turned to running to aid in my recovery. Running is liberating for my head, and hysterical for anyone watching me. Comedic value guaranteed.

I am hoping to raise a modest £50. 5km isn't exactly a gigantic achievement but I hope you will all help me give something back to a team that helped me at my lowest.

Ossie x
