Last year I published the Mental Health Kit Card in response to the need in our community for help with anxiety, overwhelm or depression. The card contains a list of numbers that people could call and receive immediate help day or night.

This year my focus has turned to the young people in our community who through no fault of their own are experiencing anxiety, panic attacks and feeling overwhelmed in a world that feels impossible to navigate.

I have found some training that will enable me to help my own child and also many others in the future. I do not have the funds for this so am asking for your support. I need to start the training ASAP - early intervention = rapid recovery. I want to help build a strong and healthy community of young people by helping parents understand the early warning signs and what they can do to support their child to recovery.

The young people are the future of our community and to let their anxiety and depression go untreated will create a set of serious social problems from OCD, eating disorders and addictions.

The money will fund the training which will immediately help my own situation and in the future enable me to run parent circles supporting and helping other parents who have children who are suffering.

Please help me help those who are suffering with mental health issues by helping to fund this training which will give me a toolkit of strategies that I can share with you.

Your donations will go directly to Angie, and will be able to use them to fund her training if we can all reach the target.

Please follow me on this journey. I want to keep promoting to people the emergency support available for mental health (through the Mental First Aid Card).
