Healthy bodies help healthy minds, we will dedicate our efforts to No5 in support of young people’s mental health.
You can pat us on our back for courage, but it will be great if you could make a donation too.
What are we doing?
We are again lacing up our running shoes, jumping on our bikes, logging our steps – every activity counts towards our goal of wellbeing – together as a team!
Two teams will be registered on Strava and each month scores of those teams will be announced – competition will be fierce and by the end of the year we will have logged 40,075 km!
Who are we doing it for?
We will continue raising funds for our chosen company charity No5, who provide early intervention services to prevent the development of more serious problems caused by mental or physical ill health or other challenging circumstances. They provide support and advice (in particular through professional counselling services), to children and young people and their families regardless of difference, background or identity in the ‘RG’ postcode area, since 1971!
Why have we chosen No5?
Demand for No5 services has never been higher, with young people being disproportionately impacted by the pandemic. Over 900 young people and their families have asked them for help in the last 12 months alone. In 2022, they offered over 8,500 counselling sessions to local young people!
