Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I work on an acute female ward at St George’s Hospital as a senior psychological therapist. I have seen the amazing impact that the Shine fund has for service users in terms of providing meaningful activity and much needed treats for those who truly need it. No one ever wants to or expects to end up in a mental health crisis. It’s incredibly scary and overwhelming. The Shine fund can help provide comfort during someone’s stay on the ward. This can be Christmas presents, crafts for the ward or even trips to the beach.

Services are so stretched in mental health at the moment and there really is no health without mental health. Having experienced a number of life traumas myself,  I know the importance of services being there for those in need.

Please donate anything you can - it’s so much appreciated!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
