Story
We are “Just a Chat”, a local charity set up to raise awareness and combat the stigma of Mental Health for youths between the ages of 11-18.
Our aim Is to ensure that every youth is aware of what to do when either themselves, family or friends are faced with Mental health issues. It is common that people only try and look for answers and solution when they are experiencing mental health issues, and in some cases this may be too late.
Our aim is to focus on preparation and prevention, so that if a youth faces issues, they have the adequate tools on what to do and information on where to go for help. In our community there is a lot of organisations that offer help, but unfortunately our target age group are unable or not aware of how to access them.
As well as this we will be highlighting mental health awareness by doing workshops, podcasts, videos, socials, interviews and much much more to break the stigma around mental health in our children.
As we are newly formed we are limited in available funding so we are faced with raising our own funds in order to provide all our services as soon as possible and start making a change.
Thank you for all the help and support
