Project Yellow Day

Blackpool Sixth is raising money for Empowerment Charity Lancashire

Wear Yellow Day · 30 March 2026

Empowerment's vision is to work alongside people in Blackpool and the Fylde Coast who feel they have no voice and are not listened to; so that they are empowered to bring about real and positive change to their own lives and the lives of others.

Story

We are inviting everyone at college to wear yellow to show support for those struggling with mental health issues and coping with thoughts of suicide. This is a college-wide challenge, open to everyone!

We have chosen to support Solace, an empowerment charity, after a conversation with Sam from Empowerment, who highlighted the profound impact suicide can have on families, friends, and entire communities. Without proper support, those affected may experience ongoing mental health challenges or even be at greater risk of suicide themselves.

This made it clear to us just how important Solace’s work is, and the huge benefit they bring to our community. By participating and showing support, we hope to raise awareness, encourage conversations, and remind people that help and understanding are always available.

Thank you for supporting this vital cause from Henry, Jensen, Alessia and Chloe 💛
