100 Days with no wine or chocolate · 10 April 2022

The Purple Elephant Project is a children’s mental health charity in West London providing a safe, welcoming space for children and families. Through creative therapies like Play and Art Therapy, we help children explore and process emotions and trauma at our hub in Twickenham and in local schools.

Story

With just 13 hours to go until 2022, I'm starting to dread this challenge, but here goes!

From  the 1st of Jan 2022, I won't be having any alcohol or chocolate for 100 days - until the 11th of April. I know it doesn't say anything good about me in admitting that this will be a real challenge, but it certainly will be! 

I think with Lockdowns and being a stay at home mum, both chocolate and wine have become a stress reliever/boredom buster or pick me up (wine after children's bedtimes - don't worry!).

So 2022 is time to re-set, break some habits and maybe find some healthier stress-relievers! 

To keep me on track and accountable, I'd be so grateful for any sponsorship towards The Purple Elephant Project - a charity I am proud to be a Trustee for. Where I may waver, if I know there is money for them on the line, I'll have to stay strong!

The Purple Elephant Project work in West London to provide support for children (and their families) affected by attachment, developmental trauma or life experiences. They provide specialist therapeutic services such as Play Therapy and Art Therapy to transform children's lives, enabling them to reach their full potential and a brighter future. 

With everything that has happened in the last 2 years, we all know that children's mental health has suffered, so the services that The Purple Elephant Project provide are more important than ever. You can find out more about them here - https://thepurpleelephantproject.org/.
