We've been working with local charity Georgia's Voice for the past 2 months to help raise awareness for their crowdfunding campaign to raise £50,000 to create a hub for young women struggling with their mental health.
It's been such an incredible journey so far but when Sophie (Georgia's Voice's Founder) asked us to join them on the challenge to film the highs and lows of this epic challenge I thought it only made sense for me to raise money if I'm doing the walk as well.
This issue is extremely close to my heart, as I have struggled with anxiety since a young age. Building my own film company came with immense pressure to succeed and create something I could be proud of.
Most mornings, I would wake up feeling nauseous, unable to eat until the afternoon, sweating, and generally feeling unwell. Living with anxiety and poor mental health is incredibly challenging, but everyone who experiences it does their best to push through and put on a strong front.
The opportunity to establish this hub and support Georgia's Voice in offering assistance to young women whenever they need it is incredibly important.
