Story
As a team, we have chosen to fund raise for Mates in Mind this Christmas due to the relevance of the charity working specifically to improve mental health and wellbeing within the construction industry. Due to their involvement and work within our industry we would love to support Mates in Mind and raise as much money as possible to help allow them to continue their incredibly valuable work.
Walk a Mile in Their Shoes- Mates in Mind
It is well known that London is the construction epicentre of the UK, with thousands of workers making the commute each day. In the words of Atticus Finch “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view, until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.”
The Rap Interiors team will kick off their combined effort on December 10th and 12th, aiming to walk in the footsteps of people in the construction industry to aid the charity Mates in Mind. Our route will take us from our HQ in Kent to the heart of London and then back. The journey of 80 miles will take place on walking pads, with participants dressed in full PPE and overcoming additional challenges to reflect the mental struggles that some in the industry endure. Furthermore, with every pound given, an 80mm screw will be included in our backpacks, and the weight will continue to grow as we confront this challenge
