Walking Talking and Reading for Rethink

By John Spriggs-Taylor

I'm fundraising for Rethink Mental Illness!

Rethink Mental Illness does incredible work in providing support, information, and advocacy for people living with mental illness.

By fundraising for them, I'm helping to ensure that vital services are available to those who need them most.

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those affected by mental illness.

Thank you for your support - it means a lot!

Ok. You might not all be fans of ChatGPT but it is growing massively. And, we can do daft things, all in the best possible taste to raise money for Rethink hopefully? How do you want to see this character develop?

It’s time to turbo charge fundraising for Rethink

Wednesday 2nd Apr
Ok folks. Help me with this please? I’ve just increased target from £150 to £500 for this page. It’s now inline with our BROS page target of £500 and my Just Giving Page for Rethink also £500. We can do more than this and with events and challenges and all you Kind and Wonderful People doing your own Pages for Rethink Funraising, we will. Thank you and best wishes to you all.

Life is precious and beautiful like petting a pony. Equine Therapy. .

This is Bella, 11 years young, a miniature Shetland therapy pony. She was at Naidex 20th March. It was a brilliant few
hours at the NEC with amazing, kind people after a torrid
week of verbal abuse towards disabled people, or so it felt
to me. Mental Health problems can only get worse when
Ignorance and Prejudice run rampant. We all need Hope and
Kindness in troubled times and face to face meetings matter.
I hope we do more and more in Rethink to bring people back
together and help people live free of fear. Thank you.
