Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving fundraising page, We really appreciate it!
Fran:
I struggled through 4 years of my life battling with depression, anxiety, borderline personality disorder and self harm. I'm not going to go into detail because the point of my fundraising is not for me, but for others behind me who are taking on the fight against mental illness.
I am currently studying in college so that I can become a clinical psychologist. I want to support children and young people battling mental illness so that they never have to be alone in their fight. For me, this is the first step into making a difference to people who have been touched my mental health problems.
Beth:
By sponsoring our skydive, and donating to the Mental Health Foundation, you can help them to continue their amazing work in improving mental health services, campaigning to raise awareness and remove stigma, providing high quality advice/information so effective self help strategies and to improve access to mental health services in the UK.
1 in 4 people will experience mental health problems during their lifetime.
It is estimated that, by the year 2020, mental health problems will be the second largest problem worldwide... just behind heart disease and ahead of cancer.
Your money really does make all the difference to someone going through a mental health illness. Every donation matters.
Thank you so much!
