Tackle the Thames for Mental Health

I’m taking on an exciting challenge to support Sutton Mental Health Foundation — kayaking 20km along the River Thames from Greenwich to Battersea!

On Thursday 2nd July, I’ll be paddling through the heart of London, passing some of the city’s most iconic landmarks. It’s a 4-hour challenge — and while it’s definitely going to test me, it’s nothing compared to the challenges faced by people experiencing mental health difficulties every day.

Why this Matters

Sutton Mental Health Foundation provides essential support to people in Sutton whose mental health has had an impact on their lives. From peer support and community activities to crisis and wellbeing services, they help people feel less alone and more able to cope.

Right now, demand for mental health support is high — and charities like SMHF rely on fundraising to keep these vital services running.

How You Can Help

I’ve committed to raising at least £300, and every donation — big or small — will make a real difference:

£10 could help someone access a supportive group
£25 could support a wellbeing session
£50+ helps keep essential services running

(Every pound truly counts 💙)

Please support if you can

If you’re able to donate, I would be incredibly grateful. Your support will help ensure that people in Sutton can continue to access the mental health support they need, when they need it most.

Thank you so much for helping me make a difference.
