I retire from paid work in August and have joined the board of Trustees for LIfecraft, a small local small mental health charity, to support people with mental health issues living in the local community.  

Lifecraft provides free day services, counselling and community for anyone who needs support for their mental health issue.  This year has seen a huge cut in its funding from the county council and other funding sources, as the money goes now only to big organisations.  We need to keep the small, the local, the approachable for the most vulnerable in the community.   

Lifecraft needs to survive.  There to walk into on the street.  Not as a leaflet or a booklet.  Not as an online resource.  Not only if you can pay.
