MENTAL health charity Lancashire Mind is appealing for participants in its new fundraising campaign Breaking Boundaries.

Those who take up the challenge will be invited to complete a walk, run and bicycle ride of 417 miles, the equivalent of travelling around the wLancashire border.

The charity will allow 14 days to complete the challenge, starting on May 30, and participants will be invited to join Facebook groups to provide encouragement and tips.

All of the money raised will go towards the charity’s efforts to promote mental wellbeing across the county and help with the running of future projects.

As well as raising funds, Lancashire Mind believes that physical exercise is itself invaluable for mental health, especially amid the stresses of the current lockdown.
