Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am undertaking a lifetime challenge to raise much needed funds for Quality Radio Enterprise to continue their great work for the Health and Wellbeing of the community.

It is more that just a Radio station as it engages with listeners providing music therapy to those who may live alone, or in Hospitals, Sheltered Housing. It also provides a Quality Wellbeing Hub for those who need help and advice. It received over 2,438 requests over the last year

Quality Radio Enterprise is focused on promoting mental health and wellbeing within our community. We create engaging radio programs, podcasts, and online content featuring mental health professionals, community leaders, and personal stories. Our aim is to reduce stigma, encourage help-seeking, and empower individuals with practical tools for better mental health.

Our Wellbeing podcasts broadcast on Quality Radio often feature mental health challenges, such as stress, anxiety, depression, social isolation and Eating disorders. These issues can stem from various factors like Childhood trauma, work-related pressure, relationship difficulties, financial worries, or navigating life transitions. Many users also struggle with seeking help.

As well as programmes of Music, News, and Information we create specific content featuring mental health professionals who share their expertise on coping strategies, self-care techniques.

The Quality Wellbeing Hub provides access to Health Matters, Healthy Minds Matters and Empowering Recovery podcasts which are provided by 35 volunteers promoting mental health awareness, encouraging help-seeking, and empowering individuals with practical tools for resilience.

The charity has been recognised for its work with a

Gold award for best special event programme of the year

Silver award for Best Community show of the year

Bronze award for best Volunteer presenter over 60 years

Bronze award for Best specialist programme

When I retired I took the opportunity to learn to fly and now I have the opportunity to fly an original Spitfire at Biggen hill Airfield, one of the main bases that saw so much action in WW2.

Part of my challenge is to perform a victory roll and I would hope you can support the charity by donating to the Quality Wellbeing Hub .
