Andy Ling is raising money for Youth and Families Matter

South Downs 100mile run · 6 February 2027

Youth and Families Matter (YFM) is a local charity that has been loving Totton for over 25 years. Through a programme of one-to-one support, groups, activities, courses, a food bank and community cafe, YFM aims to be there for children, young people, adults and families in this community who are facing tough challenges. These challenges can include abuse, addiction, family relationships, homelessness, mental health, illness, poverty, special needs and many more. YFM aims to listen without judgement and to do so with compassion; care with kindness and sensitivity; and empower individuals to make positive changes and face challenges with confidence. YFM is fairly unique in that they will look to support someone whatever their struggle and for however long they need.

Hello I am taking on this challenge to push myself physically and mentally further than I have ever done in my life.

Why because as you may be aware every day people up and down this country are pushing them selves physically and mentally just to get by each day /week /month with the cost of living ever increasing and pressures to put food on the table for there family, to find a home of there own, or to just get by with the basics.

YFM is a group that does amazing things for our community here in Totton and the New forest area. Whether thats the food bank or housing help, financial advice or just a cup of tea and someone to listen.

These people give up there time to help our community in there time of need with grace and love and really helps so many people.

They really make a difference and like so many things the costs of providing these services are constantly increasing as is the demand unfortunately.

That is why I felt the need to do something to help this amazing group and do something to raise money and awareness for the work that they do week in week out here in Totton.

Please donate what you can and hopefully help raise money that will directly help those in our community that need it the most.

God bless
