Hello everyone! Firstly, thank you visiting my fundraising page, it means the world to me that you're here.
I have set myself the challenge of conquering the Great North Run on 10 September 2023 and I'll be part of a whopping group of 60,000 determined and dedicated runners, all running what has been described the embodiment of perseverance, resilience, and one of the most gruelling half marathons to exist (little bit scared)!
For those of you who know me well, you'll know that being physically active is something I'm very enthusiastic about but for this challenge in particular, I will be raising funds for the charity 'TogetherWe Cumbria', an amazing charity that is close to my heart.
TogetherWe provides individuals of all ages personalised community support through a range of interventions and services for mental health and physical health. The focus of their cause, is to empower you to better manage your physical and mental health and wellbeing and they achieve this through a 'whole person' approach, helping individuals to learn skills to help better manage their own physical and mental health and overall wellbeing.
I will be posting my training updates until the big day, so please keep checking my page (I don't have social media to post on unfortunately) and if you are able, I'd be forever grateful if you could leave a donation so TogetherWe can continue their life-changing, much-needed services to local communities.
