Running to Raise Mental Health Awareness and Destigmatize Mental Health Conditions
- 10/10/2021 - 31/10/2021
Tammy is fundraising for Mind Mental Health Hong Kong Limited
I'm making a difference by raising money for a cause close to my heart. Please support me by donating.
My Story
In two weeks’ time, October 24 (Sunday), I will be running the Standard Chartered Half Marathon in aid of Mind HK in the hope of raising awareness of the importance of self-care and challenging inaccurate representations of mental health conditions. I’d also like to bring the physical and mental health benefits of being active into focus.
About the Beneficiary
1 in 4 of us will experience a mental health problem in our lifetime. Mind HK's key mission is to destigmatise mental health conditions and improve attitudes and awareness to make sure everyone experiencing a mental health challenge has access to the available services and resources in Hong Kong. Learn more about Mind HK here: www.mind.org.hk
In honour of World Mental Health Day, Mind HK has launched its new anti-stigma campaign “More Than A Label”. Through showcasing personal stories of people who have faced mental health problems and are in recovery, it seeks to encourage the public to look beyond the typical, stigmatising labels associated with mental health diagnoses.
Being part of this campaign, I’d like to take this opportunity in raising funds to help support destigmatising perceptions towards people with mental health problems in Hong Kong. If you’d like to know a bit more about my mental health journey, head over here: www.morethanalabelhk.com/post/tammy
Alternatively, feel free to drop by Mind HK’s “More Than A Label: This Is Our Story” exhibition from 15-19 Oct at the Wild Lot, featuring 40+ mental health recovery stories. No registration required. There will also be public sharing sessions on 16 and 17 Oct. Visit their website for more details: www.morethanalabelhk.com
Please donate to this page to help me reach my target of raising $2000 in total. I am aiming to finish the race in under 2 hours – this will really keep me going on the day! Any donation, no matter how small, is greatly appreciated. If you can, please share or forward this page with your circle of friends. Most importantly, please do take some time to check in with self and people around you!😉
Sending lots of love to you all,
