Why i support Glow
Wednesday 9th Sep Mental health issues have impacted my family, as I grew up and into my 50s. When I was 16, a cousin committed suicide. Lots of extended family were likely neurodivergent but undiagnosed in the 70s-00s and had acute anxiety and depression. I currently work as an SEND teacher, where I work with many pupils who have anxiety or SEMH. Annually, we as a family raise money for cancer and mental health charities. This year we are honouring a young 18yo called Daniel, who was admitted to respite care under ST George's in Wandsworth. We lost track of him, but had shared conversations and hoped he would recover. We no longer know where he is or how he is doing. 18 is awfully young to feel as alone and low as he did. We are walking this year for all who help those with mental health issues; those who support friends and family through it and all the Daniels. There are helpers everywhere, sometimes it does not feel enough in darkest moments. But.. we continue to reach out and help. To Daniel. ShareThank you to my Sponsors
