Story

Welcome to my virtual bucket collection, I am fundraising for Mental health, with a particular emphasis on ‘Men’s mental health’ and ‘Teenage mental health’

Why?...

In England in 2023 there were 5,656 suicides of which 4,188 involved men. Men are 3 times more likely to die by suicide than women. Each number represents a father, a brother, a son or a husband.

For teenagers, the pressures of social medial and the impact of covid have highlighted challenges to mental health.

All my fundraising efforts will be to strengthen mental health services within Rochford district, particularly the grassroots organisation that can make a tangible difference to the wellbeing of our community.

I would say ‘go on dig deep’ but the truth is any amount that you can donate will help make a difference, here on our doorstep.

Thank you
