27 27
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for 27 27 and choosing to support Mind.
This March I will be walking 100 miles in 27 days in solidarity of the 27% of students who report a mental health problem whilst at university. I will match donations (up to a total of £100) at the end of the fundraising event. If I am able, I will update this page and my social media with things I see on my walks, to share in the walks in nature that I will be doing.
More students are experiencing mental health problems than ever before. The number of students reporting a mental health problem is five times greater today than it was ten years ago, while the number of students dropping out because of mental health problems has trebled.
Every student taking part in the 27 27 challenge is sending a clear message: its time to take our mental health seriously, and won't give up until everyone with a mental health problem gets support and respect.
