"According to Mind, approximately one in four people in the UK will experience a mental health problem each year.
"The Derbyshire Times has an important campaign, You Are Not Alone, which aims to raise awareness about mental health issues and help end the stigma surrounding mental health problems. The campaign also seeks to inform people about the organisations out there - like Mind - which offer vital support to those who are struggling.
"Thank you to everyone who's sponsored me so far - I really appreciate it, and so does Mind."
