Story

What are we doing?

Our team of wonderful supporters are running, cycling, walking and swimming 90 miles in November to raise money for Bexceptional Foundation.

Why are we doing it?

Waiting times for counselling and mental health support in some parts of the England are now over 12 months, creating an urgent need for alternative support. We provide access to trained counsellors who can see patients within days, and can offer partial funding to make the sessions accessible to as many beneficiaries as possible. The funds raised will provide over 60 counselling sessions to women and girls in need of mental health support due to sex or gender based harm.

The charity does not receive any government funding, so we rely solely on donations from supporters like you.

Testimonials from women we have previously supported show how important our work is:

I registered through the Bexceptional Charity as I had gone through a difficult period of my life and needed some help and guidance. I was struggling with my relationships, my self-esteem and self-worth were very low and I had little/ no confidence after finishing a toxic relationship. I was initially apprehensive to go through therapy but I feel as though this service changed my life.

My counsellor was very approachable, kind and non-judgmental. She changed the way I saw the world and changed the way I saw myself. It was a very emotional journey but after only 6 sessions I felt myself becoming stronger and started to be proud of who I was (which I have never felt before). She helped me understand why I continued to have a similar, toxic pattern of relationships and why I felt as though I was 'worthless'. By understanding these root causes, I was (and still am), able to grow on these and build myself up again.

Starting therapy was a big decision, but it was a decision that has changed my life. I now feel stronger to live my life for me, be confident in my life choices and now have the power to not let individuals treat me in ways I do not deserve. Thank you Bexceptional Charity for allowing me to undertake this journey. I would highly recommend therapy to anyone. 

All funds raised go towards funding counselling sessions and core operating costs of the charity.

We thank you for your support
