Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As the GP responsible for commissioning mental health services  my  vision for Northamptonshire is that we have greater focus on what keeps us well and how to empower people to help themselves. Happiness is good for you and your actions matter.

 I will be giving my time,  in the company of good friends,  exercising,  noticing the scenery (and the pain),  trying something new ( this is double the distance I’ve ever cycled),  with a clear goal (the coast), your sponsorship will give me a sense of meaning.  I will try my best to keep positive and bounce back from  the pain  and accept my body's limitations. Although this is harder to promise, I will achieve at least seven of the 10 keys to happiness.  http://www.actionforhappiness.org/

The money raised will support Northampton Mind in  developing a partnership with action for happiness to promote information to be available for the public  in coffee shops  and public houses and wherever people are willing to receive the message
