Hello all and welcome to my JustGiving page!
It has been a while since I have asked you all to reach deep
into your pockets and donate for a good cause but it is this time again! I
needed to come up with something that is truly challenging and something that
will really push me. So here it is: I am going WingWalking!
Yes, you read that right – WingWalking!!! Those that know me
well, know that I am not particularly
keen on heights – I can barely walk over a bridge. So I thought “ Why not strap myself to the top
of a plane?”. There is a good reason that I am doing this though and I hope
that you are all able to support me by donating.
I am raising money for the charity Mind. There are many
people around us that struggle with a mental health problems. Mental health problems come in various forms
and are often not visible. This includes illnesses such as depression, eating
disorders, drug use, OCD, panic attacks and many more. Actually, every year,
one in four of us will experience a mental health problem and these figures are
often increasing, yet parliament has been cutting funding for mental health
services in England and Wales.
This can be hard to talk about – especially with friends and
family. Mind however, provides support and advice to anyone experiencing mental
health problems providing a forum to talk and guidance. Minds mission is to
improve services, raise awareness and promote understanding.
So please donate - whether that is just £1 or £10, every little
helps the cause.
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.
