In April 2027 I am running the London Marathon, raising vital funds to help young people in Gravesham access life-changing mental health support.

Running this marathon is about so much more than crossing the finish line. I want to challenge myself physically and mentally while raising money for the Elliot Holmes Memorial Fund, a cause that means a great deal to me. Every mile I run is dedicated to remembering Elliott and helping the fund continue its important work in his memory.

By taking on this challenge, I hope to honour his legacy, raise awareness, and make a positive difference for others. Every donation, no matter the size, will help support the fund and motivate me to keep pushing forward every step of the way.

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.
Your donation could mean a young person in crisis is seen within days, not months or even years. 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.
