Raising money for The DPJ Foundation

The DPJ Foundation is a Welsh charity to support those in rural communities and in agriculture with mental health problems. We do this by reducing the stigma that surrounds poor mental health, educating people with mental health awareness training and providing counselling and a 24/7 helpline.

Story

The DPJ Foundation is the leading mental health charity working with the agricultural community in Wales. Established in July 2016 following the death by suicide of Daniel Picton Jones, the DPJ Foundation raises awareness of mental health in rural communities and provides support when it is needed most.

We wanted to do something to bring people together, even when being physically together might not be possible, to be active and to have fun. That is how this challenge was born. This challenge will see individuals and teams of 4 virtually complete the full length of the Wales Coastal Path (870 miles) on foot within 3 months. This is quite a challenge, but by stepping out we are making a difference to rural mental health.

All donations go directly to supporting our Welsh farming community. £270 provides 1 person with a course of potentially life-saving counselling.

Diolch i bawb am gymryd rhan!
