Half Marathon

Studies show that eating disorders have the highest death rate out of any mental illness and have developed in children as young as 5 years old. Despite eating disorders being so prevalent, killing more people than deaths on the road, there is an extreme lack of research, resources and facilities that promote recovery.

 

This September I will be running a half marathon to raise awareness and funding for eating disorders. Being a frontline mental health worker and having some of the closest people in my life suffer from this debilitating illness, I have witnessed first-hand the extreme psychological and physical impacts that eating disorders have. I feel passionate about breaking the stigma and supporting those suffering from an eating disorder in accessing resources to promote their recovery. I hope you do too!

 

All money raised will be donated to the Butterfly Foundation. Any amount would be deeply appreciated. Thank you kindly in advance
