Lucy Tissington is raising money for Positive Social
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

12 hour family silence for a day with no technology · 27 September 2025

Our interactive sessions in schools show young people how to handle social media positively and constructively. We tackle inappropriate use, bullying, addiction, self worth, fake news and getting the right balance, helping them take back control of their lives from social media.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I wanted to raise money in a fun and challenging way but I am really not made for marathon running.

Family Tissington are going to undertake 12 hours without devices and in silence. Xander is going to be testing out his sign language skills he learnt from his last sponsored silence.

Positive Social is my charity of the year for Derby and District Law Society. This is a charity close to my heart. With little ones heading up to time to be thinking about having a phone or not and what effect this will have on their lives.

Positive Social aim to help young people survive and thrive in today’s social media world. Their vision is to work with every school in the UK to empower students to use social media positively and equip them to avoid the pitfalls.

Every time after seeing Mark Saxby talk it makes me realise the huge impact social media has on us as adults and in turn the scary effect this has on children.
