Nexus NI
Walk to Talk Challenge
A walking challenge to get outdoors, active, improve wellbeing and raise funds to support survivors of sexual trauma, while also helping to break the silence right across NI with every step we take.
Story
Join Nexus for our new walking challenge as we collectively aim to walk 1000km across NI, while helping to #breakthesilence on sexual trauma with every step!
The challenge is yours to create! Pick a specific route or your target kilometres/miles. Pick a timeframe. Get walking and fundraising to help others start talking through their journey of recovery.
Demand for Nexus services continues to rise, with over 900 new referrals in the past 6 months alone. We know many more people are suffering in silence. With your help, we can raise vital funds and awareness to support survivors, and bring hope, healing and positive, lasting change across our community.
Our supporter Caitlin recently took on her own walking challenge:
The counselling and support I've received through Nexus has been life changing and has made a significant positive impact on my mental wellbeing. I wanted to give back in some way to help Nexus continue to help others and ensure they have the same great experience I did. That's why I decided to take on the challenge of walking 100km in the month of April, and managed to raise £453 in total.
To celebrate your fundraising achievements and help you #breakthesilence through your challenge and beyond, youll receive some Nexus awareness goodies!
** A #Breakthesilence Nexus face-mask when you raise £10
** Our colourful Nexus t-shirt when you reach £60 (you've helped fund one counselling session for a survivor)
** A fabulous Nexus aluminium water-bottle when you reach £120 (you've helped fund 2 counselling sessions for a survivor).
