I’m back for seconds for the Hackney Half Marathon next month and will be running to support the very fabulous @Renew Charity!
Frustratingly, access to counselling and therapy is not always accessible or affordable - yet is one of the most effective tools in overcoming the complicated hurdles and challenges that life throws at us. In the same way that we look after our physical health, counselling is just like going to the gym but for your brain.
Renew does an amazing job in supporting the local communities of Essex and East London, making sure that many people who would not otherwise be able to afford counselling are given the support that they need. Through their training programmes they empower people to become experienced, professional counsellors that provide clients with a safe and supportive space.
Appreciate the last year hasn’t been all that kind, but if you’re able to, I’d be v v grateful if you can spare a couple £££’s be it the price of a (London) pint, your morning coffee or something a lil bit more to help me reach my donation target and support Renew 🎯!!!
About Renew
Every day, we see more and more people of all ages and backgrounds needing help to cope with what life throws at them. But severe cuts in the funding of mental health services mean that every year, we have less resources to deal with an ever-growing list of people needing our help.
We know that counselling empowers people to make important changes, and in an ideal world we would be able to deliver affordable counselling to everyone that needs it. Your donations go a long way in helping us to make this a reality.
