Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I have made this donation page to raise money and awareness for people who are strugging with mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This year was an unexpected year for everyone. The way we live our lives has changed and will likely continue to do so as we work through this crisis.
This has had a huge effect on peoples wellbeing and mental health, myself included.
Speaking to many of my friends whose lives have changed due to new work from home policies and all the added restrictions that are have been put in place not only on for us in the UK, but world wide.
These changes have left them struggling with their mental health and we all deserve to be able to get the help we need.
Here is some research conducted by The Samaritans that looks into the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental heath and suicide risk:

I'm extremely thankful to everyone who donates to this great cause. All money will be donated to the Mental Health UK Charity so that we can get more help to those who are in need of it.
So we can bring back the happiness across the nation during these unprecedented times.
