Accent Fundraising for Sasha's Project

Kerrie Cole is raising money for Sasha's Project

Team: Accent fundraising for Sasha's Project

Sasha's Project supports young people (13-25yrs) who are struggling with poor mental health or who feel suicidal. We run a crisis drop-in centre in Fleet which is open 9pm - 6am every Friday and Saturday night.

Story

As part of Accent’s 25th Anniversary, we’re bringing our teams together to raise money for 25 charities and celebrate the communities that mean so much to us. From September 2026 to May 2027, our target is to raise a combined £25,000 across all 25 charities. To help make every pound go further, Accent will match £1 for every £1 raised, up to £1,000 per charity.

This team is dedicated to supporting Sasha's Project. Sasha’s Project is a charity which has been set up in memory of Sasha, a local girl from Fleet, who died by suicide when she was just 20. Sasha’s struggles were exacerbated by the lack of help available to her when her mental health was poor. When she was feeling suicidal, she needed compassion, support and a safe place to go to, especially during the night. This wasn’t easily accessible.

Currently, if a young person is in crisis in Hampshire and Surrey borders, options for help can be limited, especially during the night. With cases of suicide rising nationally, we aim to provide support that fills this gap. Sasha’s family feel that having somewhere safe to go would have made the biggest impact on Sasha’s struggles and they want to open a crisis house, open 24/7 with facilities that allow for overnight stays. This is their long-term plan that involves raising substantial funds. In the meantime, the charity runs a drop-in centre until there is sufficient funding.
