Leicester Sharks Travel Around The World · 1 February 2021

We’re leading the fight for a future where all young minds are supported and empowered, whatever the challenges. We’re here to make sure children and young people get the best possible mental health support and have the resilience to overcome life’s difficulties. Join our fight.

Story

Leicester Sharks CSC is the county’s leading swimming programme, with squads from Learn to Swim through to international representation.

During this difficult time, Leicester Sharks CSC appreciates the pressure children and young people are under, especially during the current pandemic, and would like to raise money towards a good cause in Young Minds 

Young minds have a new purpose: to stop young people’s mental health reaching crisis point. A new vision: that no young person feels alone with their mental health. And a new mission: to make sure young people get the support they need, when they need it, no matter what.

Our target is to relay, on foot, around the world in 80 days, that's 24,901.5 miles in 80 days! We like to aim high and so we are aiming to collect 10p for every mile we walk. Your support in this is welcomed!

A message from young minds - 

Thank you so much for contacting YoungMinds and wanting to support us. We value every opportunity to raise awareness about the
vital importance of children and young people’s emotional wellbeing and mental health and we could not do this without the help and support of many generous individuals.

If you or anyone you know need any mental health supporter
there are plenty of resources on our
website,
so please do take a look at these.

The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic is the biggest health crisis for generations, and it is having a devastating impact on the lives of
people across the world.  The measures that the UK Government is taking to address the crisis are absolutely necessary to save lives, whilst simultaneously posing a mental health risk for our society.

Having your support at this uncertain time means volumes to
us, so thank you.
