Ollie, Hannah & Leigh Run 10k for EHMF

Donation protected
Hey!

Ollie, Leigh and I (Hannah) on the 1st of July 2023 will be running a 10k in Greenwhich Park to raise donations for a small local charity close to home.

We want to help better the lives of the young and raise what we can to help those suffering with Mental health in any way we can.

The Elliott Holmes Memorial Fund is a Community Interest Company, providing funding and direct access to Mental Health Counselling for young people aged 13-18, in Gravesham. They utilise the available capacity in the private counselling sector. The counselling referral form provides the means to access mental health counselling fast. The charity Provides funding direct to independent, local BACP counsellors who accept EHMF terms. This one point of contact quickly builds trust with young people. Money is raised by the local community and businesses through a variety of events and sponsorship.

Research shows that early intervention is key. However, with long waiting times young people can get lost in the system and many find it almost impossible to access counselling via the NHS. This inevitably leads to issues compounding and in the worst case scenario can result in someone taking their own life, just like Elliott. Sadly, statistics report almost one suicide a week in Kent.

This charity is Inspired by Elliott, a 19 year old, who sadly took his own life in June 2020.

Thank you for listening and any donations will be very much appreciated.

Hannah, Ollie and Leigh
