The Devon Clinic is a local charity and CIC that helps people who are struggling with mental health issues, including stress, anxiety and depression. We support people with all kinds of mental health issues, from the Afghanistan veteran who was finding it hard to play with his children as every loud noise made him freeze in terror, to the young mum who lost her baby and has found it impossible to come to terms with the loss on her own. As well as therapies provided by psychologists, counsellors, hypnotherapists and wellbeing practitioners, we provide complementary treatments such as acupuncture, massage and Equine Therapy (just being near amazingly empathetic ponies works miracles!). The results we have seen have been life-changing – not just for our clients but for their wider families too. Sadly, like a lot of smaller charities, we struggle to raise sufficient funding to see everybody quickly. With the suicide rate in Devon higher than the national average and with the cost-of-living crisis affecting thousands of people in the county, we have more people needing our care than ever before. We support survivors of domestic violence but currently have over 100 people on the waiting list to be seen, and it’s heartbreaking to think of the struggles they’re facing while they have to wait for months to receive any help. Any money we were lucky enough to receive from grants or donations would make a huge difference to those brave enough to ask for help.

Story

Imagine walking 100km across Devon in just 24 hours — from the windswept sands of Westward Ho! to the sea at Paignton, climbing over Dartmoor under the stars. That’s what we’re doing to raise vital funds for The Devon Clinic, a charity providing affordable counselling and mental health support for people who need help but can’t always afford it.

Every mile we walk represents someone struggling with anxiety, trauma, or depression who reaches out for support. The Devon Clinic is there to listen, to care, and to help people rebuild their lives — but we can only keep doing that with your support.

This challenge isn’t just about distance; it’s about determination, teamwork, and compassion. The walk will test us physically and mentally, but knowing that each step helps someone take their first step toward recovery makes it worthwhile.

Please donate, share, and be part of this journey. Together, we can make mental health support accessible for everyone in Devon.
