Campaign: | To show others with mental health issues that obstacles can be overcome |
Living with a mental health condition can often feel like an uphill struggle.
In my experience, it can sometimes be hard to motivate yourself to do things, and every day can feel like you have a mountain to climb.
So, my team and I decided to climb an actual mountain – Mount Snowdon in Wales – to show others that with the right support, it is possible to overcome obstacles. With Fixers, we’ve helped create a film documenting this journey.
We want to highlight the psychological benefits of undertaking a physical challenge, while also encouraging others, who may be experiencing mental health issues, to ask for help.
