Hi Folks
This is my second challenge for WAYC this year! This time I'm running the wolf run to raise money for young people who are living and will soon be leaving care.
For a lot of these young people once they reach 18 all support for them is stopped and they are on their own often without any support from family or loved ones to fall back on.
It is widely known that young people living in care are often far more susceptible to drug misuse, prostitution, suicide and mental health problems. They can often go hungry and wrestle daily with feelings of loneliness, isolation and despair.
WAYC provides 1:1 mentoring support and project work that includes helping young people find employment and develops basic life skills e.g. cooking, which will help them to live healthily when they leave the care system
Please sponsor me. Many thanks
David
