Our Challenge

This year we are hoping to collectively travel to from 'Pike to Pole'  covering 4042 km as a group from Rivington Pike to the North Pole- every step we take is a step closer to achieving better mental health and wellbeing for everyone in Lancashire. 

This year we are hoping to raise £20,000-every pound we raise brings us closer to achieving better mental health and wellbeing for everyone in Lancashire. 

  • £50 could enable us to deliver one of our Happier Lancashire wellbeing focused talks to a community group in Lancashire.
  • £250 could provide someone living in one of our properties with the items such as saucepans, towels and other items to set them up in their new home.
  • £1,000 could deliver a course of wellbeing coaching for four individuals struggling with their mental health.
  • £2,500 could deliver a five week resilience based programme in a school to 30 children.
  • £5,000 could enable us to answer calls and emails to 1,000 people looking for help and support.
  • £10,000 could enable us to deliver six one to one support sessions to 40 children with poor mental health.
