My Story

Hi everyone,

This April I’ll be running the London Landmarks Half Marathon to raise money for Action Mental Health. As a mental health nursing student, I see every day how vital the right support can be. AMH does incredible work across Northern Ireland, promoting resilience, providing counselling, and supporting people living with mental ill health. Everyone is touched by mental health at some point in their life.

Right now, Action Mental Health, alongside other voluntary sector organisations, is facing a 64% cut in funding for essential frontline services across Northern Ireland. These services make a huge difference to so many people, so supporting them feels more important than ever.

I’ve reached 30% of my fundraising goal, which I’m really grateful for. I hate asking, but if anyone is able to donate — even a small amount — it would mean a lot and go towards supporting these vital services.

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported me so far. 💜
