DRM - Your Mind Matters is raising money for Coventry, Warwickshire & Worcestershire Mind

DRM 2022 Fundraising · 3 January 2022

Story

We Are DRM. A clothing brand raising awareness and reducing stigma for mental health based in Warwickshire. We use 25% of our profits to go into the community work that we do, which could be providing resources, events, fundraisers, workshops or direct donations to charity. Our charity partner is Coventry, Warwickshire and Worcestershire Mind, who we fundraise for at events and through our challenges.

We are passionate about helping mental health charities continue their great work, thats why we support CWW Mind, they’ve been developing and delivering quality services with, and for, people with mental health issues for over fifty years. An independent charity governed by a group of local trustees, Coventry, Warwickshire and Worcestershire Mind is affiliated with the national Mind network, which is made up of over 105 organisations across England and Wales. Each local Mind is unique, working hard to understand the needs of their community and tailoring their services to match.

We want to make sure that everyone with poor mental health gets the support they need and the respect they deserve. This could mean having access to information, a listening ear, or more specialist support and services to help someone to live and recover from their mental health issue. Coventry, Warwickshire and Worcestershire Mind provide services to all ages, including children, young people and adults, supporting in excess of 40,000 people each year.

🚨 CHALLENGE ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

We’re officially taking on the South Coast Ultra Challenge this September - 100km in 48 hours, walking from sunny Eastbourne, over the iconic Seven Sisters, through Cuckmere Haven and the South Downs, and finishing in historic Arundel 🏰 (yep, with nearly 2,100m of elevation - it’s no stroll in the park!)

This isn’t just about the physical and mental test (though that will be real) - it’s part of our mission to hit our long-term fundraising target of £10,000 for Mind Coventry, Warwickshire & Worcestershire 💙

We haven’t trained like this since our marathon for Mind back in 2021, but we’re back - this time with support from some incredible Midlands based businesses too. 🙌 To mark this year - the year we hopefully reach our goal, we are dropping TWO football-inspired shirts (home & away), designed by our talented friends @Boxcey ⚽🔥 Complete with sponsor logos and available to buy soon - we’ll be training in them with pride.

Training officially kicks off this month and we’d love company on our walks, if you fancy a leg stretch or have route recommendations, hit us up! We’re trying to keep things sociable to stay motivated and accountable as we juggle full-time work, weekend pop up shops with DRM and preparations for our summer workshops. Training for the big walk on September 6th & 7th on top of this is going to keep us very busy, so any company and support would be greatly appreciated.

It’s going to be a wild few months. As always, donations big or small are hugely appreciated.

100km, £10,000, 1 mission: better mental health.

Bill & Erin 💙
