"Running the Paris Marathon for Mental Health UK was an unforgettable experience. Knowing I was supporting such an important cause made crossing the finish line even more rewarding."

Daffyd

"I remember feeling so proud to be part of the community. It was an honour to walk in solidarity, raise awareness and support such an important cause."

Manisha

"I didn't think I'd manage 31 miles, but I ended up walking over 56, raising £650 and improving both my physical and mental health. It showed me I'm capable of far more than I believed."
