Running 10k for mental health awareness

Mental health is something that affects all of us. At some point in life, we’re all faced with emotional battles; stress, trauma, anxiety, or loss. These challenges can be invisible from the outside but incredibly heavy to carry.

For me, this cause is deeply personal. When I was younger, I was fortunate enough to receive support through CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) during a difficult time in my life. That experience gave me tools I still use today helping me understand my emotions, manage my thoughts, and cope in healthier ways. Without that support, my journey could have looked very different. Furthermore, in my later years I recognised its importance to reach out for support when you need it to give you the tools you require for mental health support. 

Sadly, not everyone has access to the same help when they need it most. That’s why I’ve decided to run 10K to raise money for mental health charities. These organisations provide essential services like counselling, helplines, community support—that can change and even save lives.

Every donation, no matter the size, will make a real difference in helping others access the support they deserve.

We all have stories we share or we don’t share but I want to speak up to support the charities that can help provide that’s care to those in need!
