Paul Minter The Retreat

In October 2020, we spoke with serving soldier, Paul Minter who
after 18 years of active service; including 5 front line tours of
Iraq and Afghanistan during which time he was blown up twice;
Paul was being medically discharged suffering from severe
symptoms of PTSD including depression, paranoia and anxiety.


Back then Paul was planning his military retreat. Not on the
battlefield, but a place of safety and sanctuary for both serving
and ex- military to treat their mental health.


That planning has become reality and with his charity
head-up.org.uk established he just needs to raise £3 Million to
fund The Retreat.


To achieve this and to create awareness, Paul will be running
around the coastline of the entire UK. A mere 5800 miles! Or 191
back to back Marathons or if you're a fitness watch wearer, 9,
176, 000 steps!!!


The run starts on March 1st 2022 in Liverpool and is due to
finish back in Liverpool on October 4th 2022.


We caught up with Paul to wish him well and to make sure he was
ready for this life changing challenge.
