Festive fun, together for mental health

Merry Minds, a festive 5k fun run around Belfairs Wood in Leigh on Sea, brings friends, families, colleagues and community supporters together for a festive fun run in support of South East and Central Essex Mind.

It’s a relaxed, welcoming event full of festive spirit. Whether you walk, jog or run, come along at your own pace, add a little festive flair and enjoy being part of something that makes a difference.

Most importantly, it’s a chance to come together, spread some seasonal cheer and help raise funds for local mental health support. Because no one should have to face a mental health problem alone.
