Run for Mental Health

Join Mental Health Europe for the Brussels 20K! 

 

Run for Mental Health

 

Physical exercise is proven to have a positive effect on our mental health and to reduce stress levels. The length or intensity of the physical activity are not that important – even small amounts of exercise a day can visibly improve one’s mental health. A 10-minute walk or 5-minute stretching session are a great way to start building sustainable habits that support good mental health. 

 

Due  to the strong links between physical activity and mental health, Mental Health Europe (MHE) will participate in the Brussels 20k as a Charity Team on Sunday 28th of May 2023.  In order to allow a wider participation, MHE will offer a reduced registration fee to participants joining MHE’s Charity Team (first come, first served). 

 

The race welcomes the participation of runners, walkers, and people with disabilities.  

 

If you would like to run with MHE, please send your name, surname and contact details to: margi.marchetti@mhe-sme.org  

We will get back to you with the registration procedure!

The Brussels 20K race falls on the last day of the European Mental Health Week (EMHW), a week-long campaign to raise awareness about mental health and fight the stigma that surrounds it. The EMHW will host many events and activities, including the MHE’s Run for Mental Health. Keep an eye on the webpage to stay up to date with the latest news!
