Story
We're trying to raise £500 for the Dialectical Behaviour Therapy Services in Carmarthen.
> Join us in supporting the DBT team’s Four Waterfalls Challenge in the breathtaking Brecon Beacons – a 7.2km trek through stunning natural beauty, featuring four awe-inspiring waterfalls and lasting around 3-4 hours. This is more than just a walk; it's a powerful opportunity to come together for a meaningful cause and make a real difference. Whether you are lacing up your boots or cheering from the sidelines, your donation or sponsorship fuels not just the journey, but the impact that Dialectical Behavioural Therapy has.
A little about us:
> DBT is a highly specialised, evidence-based intervention designed to support individuals who experience chronic suicidal thoughts and self-harming behaviours. These difficulties can affect anyone, regardless of background, yet stigma still surrounds them—tragically, lives are lost every year because of this. Our work aims to change that.
> The core goal of DBT is to help people build a life worth living, even in the face of significant adversity. We are fortunate to have a highly trained and experienced DBT team, made up of dedicated practitioners who feel privileged to witness clients flourish and thrive through this programme.
> We want to do more of this life-changing work. DBT is an intensive programme that can last up to 12 months, involving weekly group sessions and individual support. It’s a huge commitment and achievement for those who complete it. We want to make the process more supportive and rewarding by providing simple comforts like tea or coffee during the two-hour group sessions, as well as resources for mindfulness activities that currently rely on staff funding. Finally, we’d love to create graduation packs for clients who finish the programme, including items for a self-soothe box to help maintain skills and manage urges beyond therapy. These small touches can make a big difference in helping people feel valued and supported throughout their recovery journey.
