<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.</p> <p>Recently I found out that my friend, Derek Hook, is training for the Paris Marathon which will be in April 2012. Derek and I thought it would be a great idea if we could join forces to raise much needed funds for the Brent Centre where I work.&nbsp;</p> <p>At the Brent Centre we provide free psychoanalytic counselling and psychotherapy for adolescents and young adults. We help a range of young people with difficulties such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders, substance misuse, behavioural difficulties, relationship difficulties etc. What is special, in our view, about the Brent Centre is that the help offered is free, open-ended and flexible, to meet the individual needs of each young person. In the current economic climate, resources such as those offered by the Brent Centre are becoming rarer by the day, making it particularly important today to try and build as much support as we can for this charity.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please donate generously as Derek and I both feel this is such a worthy cause.</p>
