I am cycling 45 miles to help change young lives with the King's Trust
On Sunday 5th October, I will be taking part in 'Palace to Palace' and cycling 45 miles from Buckingham Palace to Windsor Castle for the King's Trust (formally the Prince’s Trust).
The King's Trust has tailored programmes and provides long-term support to give young people the practical skills and emotional resilience to pick themselves back up and create their own positive futures.
The recent Class of Covid (of which I am apart of) revealed that almost half of young people in the UK (49%) feel anxious about their future on a daily basis, with 59% agreeing they are frightened for the future of thier generation. The impact of the pandemic and the current cost-of-living crisis is taking its toll on young people with 45% having anxiety around recent political and economic events which 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%.
Please help me to support The King's Trust by sponsoring my Palace to Palace cycle ride and sharing my page. Just a £20 donation could provide a young person with an experienced youth worker for an hour, building their confidence, resilience and motivation during this time. Any amount donated is truly appreciated.
