My Story

🚨 UPDATE - £2,000 target reached through your generosity! 🙏🏻 

I completed the marathon in 4 hours 33 minutes. It was a hot day, and a tough run, but I was absolutely delighted to finish and I was inspired by the importance cause that I was running for. 

The crowds and support were amazing. 🙏🏻 

Thank you to everybody who has donated and helped me meet this fundraising target. This money will definitely help men's mental health in the constituency which I'm proud to represent. 

If you know anyone who wants to donate… Donations are still open!

As an MP, I want to do all I can to support charities taking practical action to help people overcome mental health challenges.

Men often face particular difficulties, which is why I'm supporting Back and Forth Men's Mental Health. They're a new charity in my constituency of Rugby. I've met the team, and hugely respect their approach, which is based around going on walks that encourage men to talk about their emotions. They offer a wide range of support.

I'm also the Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Running, and want to promote the role of running and any physical activity as a way to help people improve physical and mental health and to bring people together.
