Your Editor is supporting YoungMinds

You may not be aware, but in the business world, and away from writing Milford on Sea News, I have a company with a great team at Sourcing City.

Our team are doing a 310k Step Challenge in support of YoungMinds, a charity which aims to support troubled teenagers as they make their way through difficult times in life. 

We are doing this in memory of Flo, who was was a lovely, vibrant, talented and well-loved young member of our team, and who was tragically lost to many who loved her earlier this year.

The link to Milford on Sea is tenuous. However, we have a home here, I have this platform, and I also know how generous people in Milford on Sea are when they can be! So, it would be remiss not to take this opportunity to get more support for lots of vulnerable kids if I can.

Below, is a press release we have recently published to our industry, and it may be something you might like to support if you can.

Sourcing City supporting YoungMinds and more

The team at Sourcing City have decided to support a number of charities that may be less in the limelight, but no less deserving, for the critical work they do.

YoungMinds is particularly in our thoughts at the moment, as they support, and save, troubled teenagers as they make their way through difficult times in life.

The Sourcing City team have formed a team for the YoungMinds ‘Out in the Open’ 310k Step Challenge in May. 

During our lunch breaks, and after work, we will be collectively smashing that goal. We are doing this in memory of Flo, a lovely, vibrant, talented and well-loved young member of our team, who was tragically lost to many who loved her earlier this year.

We have already hit our £500 target, but we are sure that the YoungMinds charity would benefit greatly from any more that we can raise.

Each month throughout the year the Sourcing City team donate £250 to each of three chosen charities. This month YoungMinds, the North Guildford Food Bank and Depher have all been selected.

Every month the team will consider if we want to change any of the charities we support, and any charity close to any of us will be added.
