A Courtney on behalf of Stephen Langdon
Stephen Langdon - Supporting Mental Health Charity - The Junction
Fundraising for The Junction
Story
To mark my 16th birthday I am aiming to raise funds for the excellent, community based service, The Junction, who are also celebrating their 16th year. I need your support!
My name is Stephen Langdon, a S5 student at Boroughmuir High School. I am raising awareness in school of the importance of young people having somewhere locally to go when they start to struggle with their mental health and wellbeing.
The Junction is a safe, friendly, confidential centre, which offers lots of health related services, education and support for young people aged 12-21 who live in Leith and North Edinburgh. Allowing young people to talk about their mental health and have access to support is really important to me. I do not want any young person to feel alone in their struggles. Through raising funds, I would like to support the Junction to keep on providing help to local young people who need mental health care. Mental health is in crisis - Help me to help others!
