Story
CoCo Counselling in Communities is a small social enterprise providing affordable and accessible counselling to adults and young people. We are a unique service in that we offer both indoor and outdoor counselling.
We believe that every community should have mental health support available to all and it is our vision to provide a model that can be replicated elsewhere.
To raise awareness and funds for our service, we plan to hold an annual LOCHATHON, a physical loch-based challenge.
Our first event will take place on 7th October in and around Loch Venachar in the Trossachs. Kate hopes to swim the length of the loch and other swimmers will join her for varying distances. Sara and cyclists will be cycling 40km in the vicinity and others will be running around the loch.
Clients have said of our service:
"I was lucky that CoCo was here and you responded so quickly - It's been a life saver"
“CoCo helped me through the hardest part of my life within 12 weeks”
“I have a better picture of who I really am”
”You are a gift to society”.
Please help us extend this gift by supporting our Lochathon and making a donation.

7 years agoWe did it! Our courageous and enthusiastic participants braved the freezing cold Loch, steep cycle paths, oversized wetsuits and punctured tyres to complete their challenges. It was a day filled with camaraderie, excitement and exhaustion and we are ecstatic that we have reached our target! Thank you to everyone who has played a part in supporting us in so many different ways. CoCo is indebted to all of you and we look forward to doing it all again next year!
