LAMP 5k

Lamp provides support and services to those who are looking to seek help with their mental health.

Mental Health Awareness week (10th – 16th May) provides the perfect opportunity to raise awareness of the benefits physical activity can have on your mental health.

Lamp want to encourage you to get active during mental health week to better your mental health and increase your wellbeing by taking part in a 5k activity of your choice. Walking, running or cycling may be the most common forms of exercise but feel free to be creative. Swimming, rowing or even a simple dog walk may be your thing; or how about combine three activities together over the week for a Lamp Triathlon or doing an activity in fancy dress
