Having suffered, and still suffering now, from mental health issues, watching some of the people I love suffer, and seeing how little people actually understand about the issue, I couldn't help but feel that I needed to do something. I suffer from extreme anxiety so knew I wouldn't be able to do some of the more active challenges, but I knew I had to do something, anything really. That's where the idea of these postcards came in. If your here, you may have received one and my hope was that on doing so you also received a little pick me up. I really do hope that it brightened your day or maybe even just sparked up a conversation about mental health. In whatever way it affected you, I truly hope it was a positive one. If you have the post card, feel free to take a photo and share it on social media using the hashag "#Passthepositivity", then please pass it along to anyone. Pass it to a family member or a friend, a co-worker or even a complete stranger. Lets see how far they can get, and how many peoples day we can brighten!
Sometimes it isn't easy to know how to bring it up or how to just say "I need help", and that is what I really hope can change. I hope that one day mental illness is viewed with the same level of understanding as physical pain.
Please try to donate to this incredible charity, but if you can then please just take something from this. please, if you need help then speak out. And if you know anyone who needs help then try to be there for them and listen to them, or if that's not possible then please get them the help they need.
For anyone who has received a post card, has donated (or even just come to find out what this is all about) and passed it along. Thank you. We need this kind of awareness, support and curiosity. Even just taking a second to think about the ways that we can support each other in dealing with mental health issues makes such a huge impact.

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.
