WHY: Having learnt from my Mum and Dad's experiences working with adults with learning needs in a horticultural environment and how rewarding this can be I was naturally drawn to the work that is happening at Bath City Farm. As well as this during my time at University I volunteered at a local country park similar to that of Bath City Farm and experienced the great mental health and social benefits this environment can bring. Therefore realising what a struggle it must be to raise funds during a pandemic and having been fortunate enough to move to the area recently, I thought during the second lockdown I would try and raise some money for a local charity – Bath City Farm. Running is my passion having ran my first marathon on my 21st birthday during the first lockdown I thought during this lockdown I would try and run 3 marathons, one a week.
