⭐The Big Give Christmas Challenge is back! ⭐ Once again, we're taking part in the Big Give Christmas Challenge. From 12pm on 3 December until 12pm on 10 December, every penny you give through the Big Give website will be doubled. This means one donation will make twice the impact. This year, we'll be fundraising for our Early Intervention Service for Young People aged 11-18. This free service provides tailored support for those that need it most. The number of children and young people who are waiting for mental health support in West Kent is over double any other area in Kent and Medway. It's statistics like this that highlight the importance of programmes like our Early Intervention Service. That's why we're asking you to donate to our Big Give Christmas Challenge. It's only through your support that we're able to provide this service. And children and young people with mental health problems need our help now more than ever. The Big Give Christmas Challenge goes live on Tuesday, 3 December, so remember to save the date! Please keep an eye on our social media channels and website for more information about how you can get involved. 🗓️ Tuesday, 3 December - Tuesday, 10 December #BigGiveChristmasChallenge #SaveTheDate #TeamWestKentMind #WestKentMind #TeamWKM #ChildrenAndYoungPeople #ChildrenAndYoungPeopleServices #ChildrenAndYoungPeopleProgramme #ChildrenAndYoungPeopleMentalHealthServices #ChildrenAndYoungPeopleMentalHealthSupport #MentalHealth #MentalHealthSupport #MentalHealthProgramme #MentalHealthServices #MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthRecovery #SupportLocal #LocalSupport #MentalHealthCharity #SmallCharity #LocalCharity #SmallLocalCharity #SmallMentalHealthCharity

"We need to show greater empathy toward the younger generation." Youth Worker & Founder of @wrldxyen, Joshua, discusses the #mentalhealth challenges facing young people today. As reported by @TrustforLondon, "3 in 4 young people experiencing mental health problems can't access the support they need." At Spiral Skills, we believe that empathy and action are essential in supporting young people through these difficulties. We’re fundraising to expand our one-to-one provision that supports emotional and mental well-being while also teaching the essential skills needed to navigate life confidently. Our goal is to provide more therapeutic support for youth workers and young people in high need. A donation of £20 can sponsor a one-to-one mentoring session, and a £50 donation will sponsor a therapeutic session for a young person in need. Join us in making a difference. Your support will empower young people to feel seen, understood, and equipped for the future. 👉 Find out more: https://lnkd.in/emuxTDi8 👉 Donate here: https://lnkd.in/euuZ456r #YouthEmpowerment #MentalHealthAwareness #CommunitySupport #EssentialSkills #SpiralSkills #EmpathyInAction #GivingTuesday
