GLOW up London for Mental Health UK
I'm lighting up London as part of GLOW – a vibrant sponsored walk shining a light on mental health.
I’m proud to be supporting Mental Health UK, a charity that provides life-changing support to people across the UK affected by mental health challenges.
With your help, we can turn London’s iconic streets into a celebration of hope, strength, and solidarity. Every donation powers vital services, helplines, and resources — helping to ensure no one faces a mental health problem alone.
Let’s light the way toward a future where mental health is valued and supported. Please donate if you can — and thank you for being part of the movement.

Battling the Ninjas
Tuesday 9th JunMental health issues are like ninjas.
We have all either battled these ninjas ourselves or know someone who has; they lurk in the shadows, waiting for the moment to sneak up unaware and strike.
For many years, I ignored my own mental wellbeing. I put others’ needs first, strove for perfection, and pushed myself to burnout. I have lost friends to mental health struggles, and I have seen many others battle their own ninjas - some winning, some still fighting, and some losing their battle.
Mental health struggles feel isolating and lonely, even when surrounded by those who care. It can feel like a weight that only you can carry, creating feelings of crippling anxiety, insurmountable failure, and the pressure of constant comparison and judgement.
That’s why this October, I’m taking part in Glow, a 20k after-dark walk through London to raise money for Mental Health UK.
Walking has, over the last three years, been my go-to activity to clear my mind, untangle my thoughts, and find my footing again, surrounded by nature and local woodlands. It is a fantastic opportunity to walk, raise money, and experience London after dark.
If you would like to donate - helping to provide vital services, helplines, and resources to those fighting their own ninjas.
All support helps to offer a light during someone’s darkest, loneliest moments.
Thank you
