Story
At Bank of America, we are proud to fundraise for our charity partner, Mental Health UK.
Approximately 7.5 million people in the UK living with a mental illness, and an estimated one in four of us experiences a mental health problem every year. Mental Health UK, aim to increase everyones knowledge and understanding of how to protect and maintain mental health.
Our fundraising will help Mental Health UK support people with mental illnesses into employment. The charitys research suggests that despite 80% of people living with mental illness wanting to work, just 20% are currently in employment.
We will be walking a distance 42km in the London 10 peaks challenge taking on varied terrain, from footpaths to urban roads, ascending over 600m across the whole route.
