Mental health is important to us all. If you have a diagnosed condition or not everyones mental health is a priority. 💙

Alex as a new runner has taken on the challenge with Claire to run the London Marathon 2024.

This will be Claires 4th marathon and mental heath is somethimg that is important to her. She is volunteer for the charity Mental Health Mates as a walk leader for Mental health mates Chilterns and has been doing so for just over a year. Our walks may be small in numbers but our values and support behind mental health are huge.

Running is something that has helped my own mental health after losing both parents and a number of personal battles to always say that getting outside to walk or run or just pottering around in the garden is something to be gratful off to just take my mind of something for even just a few short minites.

Mind is a fantasic charity that supports us all, doesnt judge a single person and knows we all need our space to grow with the right support.

Alex started running im May 2023 and three 10k running eventd already attended the running bug has certainly hit. Running to him had already shown that being outside is beneficial to his own mental health.

This is why Mind is such an important charity for us both.H Help us stop the stigma of Mental health by supporting those that need us. 💙
