Mental Health Champion

Exciting news! SlimFit5k is now an official #RunandTalk group and our Manager and Run Leader, Rachel, is our Mental Health Champion. The #RunandTalk programme is a joint initiative between RunTogether (England Athletics)  and Mind,  and its purpose is to provide opportunities for people to meet togther for exercise and to chat about their lives and mental health, be it positive, difficult or somewhere in between.  Two main promotions of the #RunandTalk programme are held each year; in February for Time to Talk Day, and in October for Mental Health Week. More information about #RunandTalk can be found in the 'Our Programmes' section of www.englandathletics.org. SlimFit5k will be fully involved in hosting events during these time but there will also be other activities throughout the year promoting exercise for physical and mental wellbeing. Check out the news and events page throughout the year, as well as our Instagram and Facebook pages to keep up to date.
