This October, Sophie Walker will be walking the Sahara Ultra Challenge in aid of Mind. This challenge consists of walking 2 marathon distances in 2 days through the Draa Valley down to the dunes on the desert edge.
Why Mind?
Sophie speaks on how she has struggled with her own mental health throughout her adult life and have unfortunately known people who haven’t made it through their battles. Mind does great work by providing accessible information on mental health, offering active help and supporting those in need.
In 2023-2024, Mind responded to 122,000 queries to their support and information helplines, and their mental health information was accessed 25.3 million times. 83p from every £1 spent goes towards supporting people with mental health concerns.
This is an incredible challenge for an incredible organisation. Good luck Sophie!
