WE ARE DOING THE BRIGHTON MARATHON 2025!!! WOOOHOOOO...
Support Fin, Lilly & Matt in the Brighton Marathon for Flourish Mentors!
We are taking on the Brighton Marathon to raise funds for Flourish Mentors, a charity providing free, long-term mental health support to young women in need.
Why Flourish Mentors?
Mental health support is often short-term, with tick-box solutions that don’t always work. Flourish Mentors fills this gap by offering free, 1-to-1 mentoring for up to two years, helping young women navigate the challenges of adolescence and adulthood.
The need is urgent. The NHS Digital 2023 report found that probable mental health disorders are twice as high in 17-to-24-year-old women compared to men. Flourish Mentors works directly with these young women, many of whom are young carers—juggling the responsibility of looking after their families alongside their own challenges.
Flourish Mentors partner with YOUNG CARERS (who are young people taking care of their parents, in addition to all the other stressors and demands) as over a third of our mentees care for their families as the primary caregiver.
The impact so far:
🌿 Over 60 mentees matched with dedicated mentors—81% say it’s a perfect match!
🌿 400+ young women in East Sussex reached through free, expert-led workshops on anxiety management and mental well-being.
🌿 99% of participants recommend our workshops, with 91% gaining strategies to combat anxiety.
By supporting Flourish Mentors you’re directly helping young women get the consistent, life-changing support they deserve.
