London Landmarks Half Marathon for Mental Health UK

My brother and I have decided to take on the challenge of running the LLHM 2026 to help raise money for Mental Health UK in memory of our grandad. 

Our grandad died by suicide in 2022. Nothing can prepare you for that moment, to hear that someone you love has chosen to end their life. While he was someone who didn't talk about his feelings, who didn't like to show signs of what may have been considered a weakness, there is no denying that the support he desperately needed just wasn't there when it was needed most. We should be fighting with every fibre of our being to ensure everyone gets the support they need for their mental health. 

We want to make a difference to people affected by mental health problems. Every donation, no matter how big or small, brings us one step closer to a world where mental health is treated with the same importance as physical health. Let's turn awareness into action and create a brighter future for all.

Mental Health UK is dedicated to providing essential support and resources to individuals and families affected by mental health challenges. With a focus on collaboration, innovation, and inclusivity, they are at the forefront of driving positive change within the mental health landscape.
