As we come to the end of Mental Health Awareness week we wanted to share with you the news that Grow will be taking part in the Walking Out of the Darkness walk taking place on Brighton and Hove seafront on Sunday 24th June. Walking Out of the Darkness is a unique mental health awareness and suicide prevention event which brings together mental health charities, members of the public, schools universities and businesses and local authority councillors etc to walk and talk together with the aim of raising awareness of mental health challenges, and to raise money for local charities – like Grow. There are several events all over the country including this one in Brighton on 24th June. The walk is approx. 9 miles and goes from Hove Lawns along the seafront to the marina and back.
We’d love you to support us if you can in any of the following ways:
