Story
Seb’s Foundation was established in memory of a old Hill boy – Seb Adeniran-Olule who was a professional rugby player with Quins with the world at his feet, but who sadly committed suicide in 2016. The charity’s aims were broadened in 2023 to helping schools further their Mental Health provision, which include education schemes and support programmes that will train teachers and sports coaches in Mental Health First Aid, provide resources, workshops, pupil assemblies and parent seminars for schools such as ours.
Seb’s Foundation is the Hill's house charity, and this week's fundraising will be put back into boosting the mental health educational provision at Wellington. The money raised will fund the resources for next year’s L6th Mental Health Ambassadors attending the Mental Health First Aid course as well as providing a facilitator. This education is vital in empowering those ambassadors to make a real difference in boarding houses. To provide another level of support and advice for those struggling, and pass on their education and advice to those around them.
The Hill are playing dodgeball from 7am till 10pm and challenging all comers - students, staff and parents.
Don’t dodge it, talk about it
