Story
I will be running the Sheffield 10k in support of South Yorkshire Chaplaincy and Listening Service (SYCLS).
SYCLS is a charity that provides pastoral care and listening support for people facing bereavement, stress, or personal crisis. They offer early intervention and a safe space to talk - helping protect mental health and wellbeing.
Sadly, 66% of people say they have no one to talk to about their mental health or daily struggles. SYCLS is there to listen. SYCLS provides vital listening support to someone, on average, every 2 hours.
By sponsoring this 10k, you'll help ensure people don't have to face life's challenges alone.
Here's what your support makes possible:
You brighten my day! Sometimes I feel like no one will listen to me but now you listen to me. - Child
Being able to speak with someone quickly when I hit crisis really helped me to not give up. The reduction in anxiety and self-blame experienced allowed me to tackle my problems with renewed hope and clarity. - Adult
