I'm taking on the London Landmarks Half Marathon for Mental Health UK!
I 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.

To Shed Some Light
Wednesday 29th Jan“1 in 4 people in the UK has experienced a mental health problem. We won’t stop until everyone has the tools they need to live their best possible life.” - Mental Health UK
On the 6th April 2025 I will be taking part in London Landmarks Half Marathon where I’ll be running for Mental Health UK.
I make no secret of the fact that I have battled with my own journey with mental illness and I hold no shame for the years I suffered with my mental health, I’m always open to sharing my personal experiences. However, I don’t want to make this about me.
I want to shed whatever light I can that you can push through, there is reason to keep fighting, to keep taking those little steps forward and with charities like Mental Health UK, there is information and resources offered to support you through your own personal journey.
For anyone who is suffering with mental illness or those who know someone who is, please know there are so many brighter days ahead, there is so much you owe yourself and that you deserve. You owe it to you to be happy, to feel worthy, to be a live and to live the best possible life. Trust that you will get there. One small second, minute, hour, day… You will get there.
For me personally, running for Mental Health UK is a big deal. Running in general has also coincidentally been a major outlet for me so it makes sense to do what helped me to raise awareness and support for those who need it.
So, please if I could ask for you to donate whatever you can (however big or small!) towards Mental Health UK, you will be contributing to making an incredible difference. Thank you.
