This September, I will be running the Ipswich Half Marathon. I have chosen to raise money for Suffolk Mind as mental health (especially men’s mental health) is a cause close to my heart. Thank you for reading and long may their incredible work continue!

As an example, my target of £500 could enable Suffolk Mind to take a ‘Life Hacks for Young Mind’ assembly to four groups of students, helping them consider specific challenges to their age group and giving them support to stay well at what can be an exceedingly tough time for many. The benefits of this would also cascade to teachers and parents, who would become aware of Suffolk Mind’s services and start to develop the shared language needed to have difficult conversations.
