The Elliott Holmes Memorial Fund is a cause that is incredibly close to our hearts. When our daughter was at St George's School and struggling with her mental health, one of her teachers recommended the foundation. The support she received made an enormous difference to her and to our whole family, and we will always be grateful for the care and compassion shown at such a difficult time. Lizzie and I were married three weeks ago, and as we celebrate our blessing with friends and family, we feel incredibly fortunate that we don't need wedding gifts. Instead, we would love to use this special occasion to give something back by raising funds for a charity that has helped our family and continues to transform the lives of so many others.

Since 2022, EHMF has supported over 675 young people with fast, in-person counselling.

• Average wait time: 6 days (UK average: 392 days)

• No waiting list in 4 years

• Delivered by 15 trusted counsellors

• Working in partnership with schools, Kent Police, Darent Valley Hospital and local organisations

• Providing ongoing support for families bereaved by youth suicide

There is simply no comparable service locally delivering this level of rapid, barrier-free support.

Without EHMF, many young people would face months of waiting, or may not receive help at all.

Your donation could mean a young person in crisis is seen within days, not months. It could mean stability, hope, and a different future. This challenge will be tough, but the cause is far greater.

Please donate if you can. Together, we can change and even save young lives.

Thank you for your support.
