This will be my first run for about 2 years after a very annoying injury... it's not going to be pretty, but I'm going to get round, with Rosie's "help"...  and Noah is also entering the kids' race... and it's all for a fantastic cause, so please sponsor me if you feel able to!

One-Eighty empowers children, young people and their families to improve their mental health and re-engage with education. For 10 years, we have been responding to the needs and demands of young people's mental health. In this time, and greatly exacerbated by the pandemic, there has been a growing demand for our services, with a 60% increase in the past two years alone. With your generous support, we will now be able to respond to this increased need, providing even more one-to-one support for those young people with complex personal challenges (trauma, bereavement, mental health difficulties, and those with difficult family circumstances) which prevent them from engaging with education. More than that, we will be able to extend our preventative mental health offering, enabling young people with low-level wellbeing needs to receive relevant and timely support, to help prevent their mental health needs from escalating in the future.
