Story
Marie-Clare Dixon and Louise Burbank are raising money to support the Leg Up Project CIC. It is an East Midlands based mental health group that was formed in April 2019, by ex-soldier Kev Bland, as a direct response to the heart-breaking number of men taking their own lives. He strongly believed that "the only way to make positive change is to take positive action".
The Leg Up Project CIC is a social hub with the sole purpose of raising the holistic well-being for all involved. Their ethos is:
- be supportive
- be honest to yourself and others
- have Integrity
- and above all take positive action.
As advocates ourselves of the feel-good benefits of the great outdoors, we want to help Kev raise more funds to help enable him to scale his work, thereby helping more people. Community spirit is at the heart of our fundraising!
