Please support me!
One of my friends has volunteered for Acacia for 7 years. Several of us are participating in the Sutton fun run this year to help raise money and awareness of the amazing work Acacia does. I have been roped in last minute as someone has had to drop out! So only have three weeks to prepare for an 8.5 mile run!
A little bit about Acacia - Acacia Family Support offers help to mums and families who are suffering from pre and post-natal depression and anxiety. They believe that no mum/dad should suffer alone. They offer support through one to one befriending, group work sessions using CBT, telephone support and help in the home.Here is a quote from a mum who used their service:"I look forward to Monday mornings knowing I will be listened to. Having an unstructured place to talk things through has really changed how I was feeling and just being around other mums with post-natal depression makes me feel more normal."Please support me in this challenge by donating whatever you can afford.
Your donation will go towards helping many more future families receive the support they need.
£5 provides one off practical support at home or befriending.
£10 cover the cost of a group work course for one mums (with free creche).
£50 buys a mum or dad's entire journey of recovery with Acacia.
