Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

In October 2019, I lost my dear uncle Lee to depression and since then, I have tried to do everything I can to help others and their families. 

On 2nd April 2023, we (Emily & Eden) will be completing a skydive for Mind charity to help raise money for the amazing work that they do. 

In any given year, 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem and require the support from the dedicated team at Mind. In 2019-20, their amazing team answers 119,000 calls through their helplines and over 18 million people accessed their information in the same year. In the year 2020-21, even more support was offered, with Mind helping more than 406,000 people. 

There is still a lot of work to do around the stigma that surround mental health, especially in men. A small donation of £20 can run Mind’s online peer support community - Side by Side for an hour, helping people feel connected and less alone. 

These donations do not stop there and a donation of £100 could pay the cost of an infoline or legal line advisor for a whole day! This means that advisors are always ready to answer calls for support and help for those who need it most. 

All of your donations, big or small will make a huge difference to someone’s life, their families lives and go a long way to raising awareness around mental health. 

Thank you for reading!
