So myself, Rob and Tim have decided to take part in the Bradfords Westcountry 10,000 miles challenge. Each of us has our own unique mental health story so we feel this is massively important to not only raise money for a great charity but also to raise more awareness around mental health and the stigma that goes with it. We’ve decided we will do some coastal walks to help get the miles in, raise some money and spend time chatting about mental health!

At Bradfords were going to support our partner charity, Mental Health UK, and the wider UK 2021 Mental Health Awareness week (11-16 May 2021) through a massive 10,000 mile challenge getting ourselves outdoors to cover miles across our region to raise money! Its up to you, walk, bike, run, swim, paddle we want as many people as possible to contribute the target and help us try to raise £10,000 in the process.

Getting out into nature

The theme for MHAW 2021 is Nature. The health benefits of the great outdoors are well known, and this year MHAW is all about reconnecting with nature. What better way to do this than get out for some exercise and head for either the places that you already love, or indeed having an adventure to find something new.
