Isle of Wight Challenge 2021 · 10 July 2021 to 11 July 2021 ·

We’re Mind, the mental health charity, working across England & Wales. We believe no one should face a mental health problem alone. We’re here for you. Whether you’re stressed, depressed or in crisis. We’ll listen, give support & advice, & fight your corner. Thanks for fundraising for national Mind.

Story

The Challenge

On the 10th - 11th July 2021, Zurich and Friends, a team of 11, will be travelling to the Isle of Wight to walk its coastline - a total of 106km long! **

We will be arriving at the island on Friday evening, setting off early Saturday morning on our challenge to, hopefully, finish our loop the next morning... or at least in time for a monstrous Sunday Lunch! Every 12-15km we'll have the opportunity to rest, grab a cup of tea and a meal (even have a sports massage!). All of which are luxuries we have fully self funded.

** or, since the team loves maths, an infinite length thanks to fractals!

The Charity 

We'll be doing this for Mind, an excellent charity for mental health, since it's a cause very close to each of our hearts for a variety of reasons. We would like to honour everyone who has, will, or is struggling with their mental health, including those we hold dear.

Money raised for Mind will fund telephone lines to help comfort those in need, educational workshop for professionals and anyone willing to learn, campaigns to end the stigma surrounding mental health, and networking groups to help those struggling feel less alone at a time in their life where they perhaps couldn't feel more isolated. 

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. We hope you are inspired to help make a difference with us.
