I'm fundraising for The King's Trust

On Sunday 6th October, I will be plodding 13.1 miles around Windsor. Why?

The recent Class of Covid report reveals almost half of young people in the UK (49%) feel anxious about their future on a daily basis, with 59% agreeing it feels frightening for their generation. Findings suggest the impact of the pandemic and now a cost-of-living crisis is taking its toll on young people, as 45% agree anxiety around recent political and economic events affects them daily. More than a third (35%) feel their life is spiralling out of control, and for those from lower income backgrounds, this increases to 41%.
As someone in all of these percentages, I can confirm such things are the case. Things have become really hard, and really scary. Everything has become more expensive, more inaccessible, and more closed off than ever before.

You can help a little! Any donation is good and will help make a difference to the younger people whose lives have been fundamentally altered by global events out of their control. Life is hard for kids - let's make it easier for the youth of today so that they can be the pioneers of a better tomorrow.
