As everyone knows, the past couple of years have been tough on us all. Our children have suffered emotionally, socially and educationally and are still feeling the effects of what's gone on.

Knowing there was already a "mental health crisis" before Covid19 came along, at the end of 2019 I trialled and initiative that saw me receive donations from companies allowing me to put books into schools for free. It was so well received that I had planned to expand this in 2020. We all know what happened then...

With schools being stretched with budgets, and now having to put in so much extra to support our children, I want to pick this back up again but this time as a fully fledged charitable organisation!

It won't just be my books that will be donated; I have a group of authors who have all written books for educational, mental and physical wellbeing who are putting their books forward for schools to use too.

To get this up and running properly though, I really need some help with the set up costs! We need a website, an accountant (sorted but needs paying!), PR and marketing materials, payment for attendance at two (incredibly useful) conferences, and a huge list of other bits and pieces.

And, if we're lucky enough to have any left over, it'll go towards our first delivery :-)
