In a world where mental health awareness is more crucial than ever, the charity organization Call4Backup is thrilled to announce the triumphant return of their annual fundraising campaign – ‘March on Mental Health.’ Designed to promote the powerful impact of physical activity on mental well-being, this event encourages individuals to run, walk, or roll 100 kilometers throughout the month of March. By participating, supporters not only enhance their own mental health but also contribute to breaking the stigma surrounding mental health issues.

Embracing Mental Health through Movement

The connection between physical activity and mental health is undeniable. Numerous studies have shown that regular exercise can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, while also improving mood and cognitive function. Call4Backup’s ‘March on Mental Health’ seeks to highlight and celebrate this positive correlation, urging participants to embrace the transformative power of movement.

Lace-Up and Make a Difference

Participants can join the movement by signing up to run, walk, or roll 100 kilometers during the month of March. This inclusive approach allows people of all fitness levels and abilities to take part and contribute towards a shared goal of promoting mental well-being. Each registered participant pledging to fundraise £100 or more will receive a complimentary ‘March on Mental Health’ t-shirt – a symbol of their commitment to the cause.
