Blue Nose Marathon

We’re so excited to welcome Laing House back to the Medavie Blue Nose Marathon Charity Challenge! 💙

They’re back and ready to stomp out stigma with their incredible Stigma Stompers. 👟

Funds raised through the Charity Challenge help create a welcoming space at Laing House where young people ages 16–29 living with mental health challenges can connect with others who understand, build confidence, and feel accepted just as they are.
