#RunAndTalk applications open throughout January 2022
Our #RunAndTalk programme has been created with the aim of improving mental health through running in England.
Supported by Mind, the mental health charity, we want to get people talking about mental health, sharing their experiences and removing stigma, provide support and guidance to raise awareness of mental health problems and support people experiencing mental health problems to be physically active through running.
The #RunAndTalk programme aims to:
- Get people talking about mental health, sharing their experiences and removing stigma.
- Provide support and guidance to raise awareness of mental health problems.
- Support people experiencing mental health problems to be physically active through running, whether that is to support them in starting, returning to or continuing to run.
England Athletics Affiliated Clubs can apply throughout January to join #RunAndTalk, and appoint Mental Health Champions to support mental health through running.
