The past year has been very difficult for all of us, with job losses, constant fear and a lack of socializing being the key reasons for this. Now, perhaps more than ever, mental health charities are crucial. Many people are struggling immensely at the moment, so knowing you can get support may help to not just improve mental health, but to save lives.

On the 4th March (the day after my birthday), I will be shaving my head in the hopes to raise money for The Mental Health Foundation, in order to help people suffering at the moment with mental health issues. With prevention at the heart of what they do, the Mental Health Foundation aim to find and address the sources of mental health problems so that people and communities can thrive. With the money we can offer to them, hopefully improve mental health but also increase understanding across all people for all kinds of mental health problems.
