As some of you know, two years ago, my nephews lost their dad, and my sister lost her husband to brain cancer. I'm so proud of how they have fought as a family to find their way back to normality, but for Josh in particular, it has not been easy. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

Josh is 12 years old and suffers from depression & anxiety. One of the things that helps alleviate his symptoms, which include insomnia, is exercise. Something he & his dad did a lot of together. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

During Lockdown, Josh decided to try and raise some money for @YoungmindsUK by cycling the equivalent of Land's End to John o'Groats. He has now cycled 820km & has another 944km to go. It's a gruelling and immense challenge but he is determined. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

He's currently '25km from Sheffield'. A few days ago, he cycled so hard & for so long, he got sun stroke and fell off his bike, so now he's cycling with scraped knees & elbows. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

The hardest thing about all of this for Josh is getting out of bed each morning. He still struggles with his mental health a lot, which is entirely the reason he is doing this fundraiser - to help other kids in his situation. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

He's almost half way to his goal distance. The kid needs a boost. If you can spare anything, let's please show him that what he is doing is worth something. That we see him & we appreciate the effort he is making for himself & for others. https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/hannah-appleby5
