I am going to jump straight in as I know how precious time is. Since I was a youngster I always had this deep desire to help others and I don't know whether this came from not having much growing up or just having an upbringing with strong parents who taught us to always help those who were less fortunate than ourselves. I always wanted to give back to society so I worked in education for the last two decades supporting and guiding the most vulnerable. I have now decided to take this to a different level and give something back to the wider community. I am in the midst of setting up a counselling clinic. I want to raise money to be able to offer free counselling to the poor, homeless and the elderly.

Having been through some tough times myself I know how much a listening ear can help you overcome your struggles and give you the tools to learn to accept the unacceptable. I am making this my personal challenge to be able to provide this service to those who need it the most. Every penny raised will be used to make this possible.

I would ask for you to be generous as kindness goes a long way. If you can donate even a small amount that would be wonderful as they say every little helps. Please share amongst your friends and family too and if you can't do that then please spare a minute to say a little prayer for me to be successful on this journey.
