Bangkok to Saigon’

In November 2024, charity cyclist Andrew Crompton will be leading a team, with a wide range of cycling ability, on a 1100km journey across Southeast Asia, in 35-degree heat to raise vital funds for BLGC.

Funds are desperately needed to support, maintain, and expand their mental health and wellbeing programmes for local children within the Bolton and Greater Manchester community.

BLGC supports thousands of young people every day through their free open access youth club and specialised targeted youth services.

1 in 5 young people in the UK today are experiencing mental health issues and BLGC are currently inundated with referrals requiring access to their mental health programmes.

They offer a youth centric approach and are best positioned to support young people by offering the most appropriate care at the point of need.

The demand for their mental health and wellbeing services is considerably outweighing available resource and any support you could give the team in pursuit of their challenge to help this amazing charity support more children than ever before would be hugely appreciated!
