Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Sheffield Hallam Hockey Women's club have decided to take on a challenge and raise money for Mind UK, due to mental health awareness being such a prevalent issue among university students.
Mental health is a common problem that many students face due to the stresses of personal and academic life, but many do not have the courage speak about their problems.
- 2 out of 3 students feel down at some point during their studies
- Over 50% of students don't feel comfortable admitting to others that they aren't coping
- 1 in 8 students experience suicidal feelings at university
This is why we as a team felt that Mind was such an important charity to promote and fundraise for. We want to increase awareness among university students that there are places to seek help, but also raise money for this cause and help those of all ages who seek support from Mind.
Please donate and share to help us hit our fundraising target and spread much needed awareness for this charity.
Thank you!
