Alexander's Place2Be Improving Children's Mental Health
Alexander Hulme is raising money for Place2Be
Story
Hello there, I'm Alex. I work in a Social Emotional and Mental Health School (SEMH). My students have dared me to jump out of a plane without the assistance of a parachute...(just kidding!!) I am looking to raise £1,000 to cover the cost of the sky dive and a generous donation to my chosen charity:
The young students I work with really enjoy Marvel movies and would love to see me become their favourite super hero like Iron Man or Thor. The children I work with know I'm scared of heights, so this presents an opportunity to demonstrate how to overcome their own personal anxieties and fears...because that's what heroes do!
The sky dive will take place in Nottingham at Langar airfield on 01/06/2022. Any donations and support will be greatly appreciated.
One in six children and young people now have a diagnosable mental health issue. That’s five children in every classroom with a condition like depression or anxiety. Place2Be is the UK's leading school-based mental health charity, providing support to children, families and school-based staff when they need it most. Please help me support Place2Be’s vital work, and together we can make a real difference to children's mental health and ensure that children don’t have to face mental health problems alone.
