We Did It! 4200 miles in just 6 weeks!

Before Christmas, staff and supporters of Sheffield Mind took on the challenge of collectively walking the (virtual) distance between #Sheffield #Yorkshire and #Sheffield #Alabama, with the aim of raising some much-needed funds to support the work that we do.

The distance, 4200 miles, was a challenging one and we gave ourselves only November and December in which to complete. People walked to and from the office, counted the miles spent walking the dogs and the kids and even counted the miles spent walking, dancing and running at the gym and would you believe it, we have only gone and done it

Our target was to raise £1 for every mile – that’s £4200. We are some way off the financial total but we know that some people were waiting to see how we did before making a deposit - we hope that you are suitably impressed, we did good!

Every £1 raised will go towards our charitable work, supporting people with mental health needs in Sheffield. The appeal page is still live so if you would like to donate, you can do so here
