Daniel Connal Partnership is 75 this year.  As part of our celebrations to mark this milestone we wanted to give something back.  So as a partnership we've set ourselves a Charity Challenge and our DCP colleagues across all three offices will be walking, running, cycling and sailing (yes, nautical miles count), 7500kms over the next 12 months -  logged on Strava so we can keep an accurate tally.  We're aiming to raise £7,500.

All this activity will be in support of the Young Minds Trust.  A leading UK charity fighting for a future where all children and young people have access to the best possible mental health help and support. 

The Young Minds Trust works to provide young people with tools to look after their mental health, building resilience and confidence.  They also empower adults to be the best support they can be to the young people in their lives. 

Supporting the next generation is very important to the DCP family and with the recent challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown having had a particularly heavy impact on the young, we feel that the work of Young Minds will be more important than ever.  

The 75th Anniversary Challenge will run for a year but we are kick-starting it on 24th September when the DCP team will be walking, running or cycling round beautiful Dedham, on the Essex/Suffolk border. 

We would be very grateful for your support, and any amount that you can contribute towards our £7,500 target would be hugely appreciated.  If you are able to Gift Aid as well, even better.

To reassure you, 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.

Thank you.
