My Story
Hi, I’m Thomas!
Over the last 8 years, I've donated to and fundraised for MIND countless times, supporting their mission to provide pivotal mental health services to people across the UK.
This cause is deeply personal to me. Over the years, I’ve lost people I loved dearly to suicide. I believe those losses were due, in part, to a fundamental lack of accessible support and resources — support that could have saved them.
MIND fights to prevent these tragedies. They offer help, empower those who are struggling, and remind people that they are not alone. Their work means the world to me.
So, I’m lacing up my running shoes and committing to 26.2 miles of discomfort. Because that pain is nothing compared to what so many endure when facing mental health battles alone.
If you can spare just £1, you’re helping to fund life-saving services. And you’re sending a message that no one has to fight their mental health struggles alone.
Together, let’s make every mile count. Let’s make sure no one is left behind. Let’s show the world that when we rally together, we can make a difference.
Thank you for your kindness, your generosity, and your belief in this cause. Every step I take is for the people we’ve lost — and for those we can still save.
This is for Tom, Eric, Ifan, Ben, Finn, Cameron, David, and Ethan.
