Wren's litter pick for Time 4 Children

James Vyner is raising money for Time 4 Children

Litter picking

Time 4 Children is a small Mid Sussex charity with a passion and commitment to increasing the emotional well-being of our young children between the ages of 4 and 12. Once a week, a one hour session of Emotional Listening Support is given to children where they can explore their worries, fears, anxieties and experiences with a trained volunteer practitioner. Most children have between 15 and 20 sessions. The service we provide is FREE. We believe that improving the emotional well-being of our young children can help prevent the need for mental health intervention later on. Giving early emotional support to children under the age of 12, makes a real difference to their lives, families and education. Every year we help around 40 children, giving them the long term one-to-one support they desperately need to increase emotional resilience, self-confidence and self-esteem. With our support children feel better about who they are and what they can achieve as they develop a sense of self. Children can be released from being caught in a bubble of anxiety and worry.

Story

Wren is collecting 10 large bin bags of rubbish from the roads around Newick, in order to raise money for Time 4 Children (a local charity who provide emotional support).

Wren has been increasingly concerned with the environment and wanted to do something to help, in his own words:

"I felt like whenever I drive anywhere I just see piles and piles of rubbish. I felt like there was a change to be made. So I thought to myself - how could I make a big change for not only myself, but also for other people in need. I decided to raise money to do exactly that. I felt like it was a very very very important thing to do. All the money I'm raising will go straight to charity to help support local kids."

It's taken him a while (thanks ADHD side quests), but he's nearly there!
