Dom Barraclough takes on the Triple for Burton & District Mind
Dom from Finch Consulting and his good friend Charlie have decided to challenge themselves with another some huge events this year!
Dom has completed the Manchester Marathon, on time too raising £2000. The Manchester Marathon was the first of the challenges they're doing to raise money for Burton & District Mind this year.
The next challenge is Chase the Sun in June: starting on the east coast at Whitley Bay, England, when the sun comes up cycle to the west coast, arriving at the esplanade at Ayr, Scotland, before the sun goes down.
After they have completed Chase the Sun, they will be embarking on the huge challenge that is The Ride Across Britain! In September Dom & Charlie will be cycling from Land's End to John O'Groats in 9 days, camping all the way.
Dom will also be doing a skydive with Keri from Burton & District Mind on the 14th of July! More to come on this…
Jenny pushes Keri out of a plane!
So, just announced and not quite finalised!
Jenny Forsythe, Outreach Worker and Keri Lawrence, Development and Susutainability Officer have been talked into the Sky Drive with Don on Sunday 14 July 2024.
The mental health emergency is far from over!
Burton and District Mind now support over 4,000 people a year through counselling, peer support, activity groups, one to one recovery services and even more.
We still have emerging audiences such as people who have traits relating to neurodiversity, people who identify as LGBTQI+, people going through the menopause, and of course suicide prevention is still on our priority list.
Your generous donations will go a long way to help match fund projects, run pilot activities and to sustain projects that work but funders don't want to fund.
