Head Up: Running for mental health
5,000 miles, a world record, and a goal to raise awareness and funds for mental health. Over several years, the importance of support and focus on mental health has become more and more prevalent. In Synergy WorldWide we are proud to be partnering and sponsoring Paul Minter as he is running along the UK coast to raise awareness and funds for this important cause.
Paul Minter is a military veteran who has served 18 years in the British Army, now working on promoting mental health awareness for the UK Armed Forces with the help of three other veterans. After developing PTSD due to his work on the front line and losing some of his military friends to suicide, he decided to found Head Up, to help as many military women and men as possible.

Head Up
Head Up is a non-profit organization aiming to build “The Retreat”, a non-militarised accommodation where military staff (both serving and veterans) can go to deal with mental health difficulties. They want to make this retreat free of charge, allowing anyone, in any situation, to be able to take advantage of this opportunity. This will not only be a 7-day relaxing experience, but it includes an 18-month aftercare package, to ensure the safety and health of the users.
