Story

This December a wonderful team of Eikon Santas will be running, jogging, and walking the 5k course through Denbies Wine Estate to raise funds to help children in Surrey. Two of Santas special helpers will be bringing the team together and taking part on the day Eikons Chair of Trustees, Nigel Goddard, and Chief Executive, Chris Hickford.

Eikon provides vital support to young people in Surrey who are experiencing early signs of poor emotional wellbeing or mental health. Your support will help give young people somewhere to turn when they are struggling with a range of serious challenges, such as experiencing anxiety, loneliness, family loss, or being the target of bullying or abuse.

By providing a safe place for young people to turn, Eikon helps prevent unnecessary harm and even saves lives. In partnership with schools, communities, health & social care and other organisations, Eikon helps young people to feel supported and respond positively to life's challenges and thrive.

What can your festive fundraising achieve?

£100 can help provide a lunch club for a group of students. This can be the first time a young carer feels they can relax and have fun with their peers.

£50 can help give a child confidential time with an Eikon practitioner. These sessions can be the first time a young person feels safe enough to open up about whats worrying them.

£25 can help a young person feel less anxious and more prepared to start secondary school through our workshops.

I would describe Eikon as a place where there is no judgement and a place where you can be yourself - Young person supported by Eikon

thank you so so much for helping me. Every day I am here on this earth is thanks to you. - Young person supported by Eikon

When you listen to me, it makes me feel accepted, understood, important, valued and validated. It gives me a voice to help me find myself again. It reminds me that I'm not invisible or alone. - Young person supported by Eikon
