Runners Raise over £21,000 from Great Bristol Run, on behalf of Bristol Mind

Over £21,000 and counting!

This past Sunday, we had the pleasure of attending the Great Bristol Run. With the help of the Olive Shed and Cakesmiths, we were able to greet our runners with delicious cake to celebrate a well-run race.

  
We’ve been very moved by the response to search for people to run on aid of our services and by the stories of those who have taken the time to sit down with us this year. 
 
Particularly with Oli, who has gone from a service user to a fundraiser, we sat down with Oli to hear his story, which you can find here on our Instagram 
 
We were touched by his passion for our services and his motivation for running in memory of a close friend.
 
Thank you to all who put their heart into every step of Sunday’s event. Every penny raised is a penny towards our services and commitment to better mental health for the people of Bristol and the surrounding areas.
 
We look forward to seeing you all again next year and hope your muscles aren’t too achy today!
