What is Giving Tuesday?
Giving Tuesday, 29th November 2022, is an annual event and a global movement created to help charities.
The cost of living crisis has hit us all, including charities. Lancashire Mind continues to see a rise in demand for services but our income through fundraising has reduced by 30% compared to last year. You can help us this #GivingTuesday
Giving Tuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Over the last decade, this idea has grown into a global movement that inspires millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.
