Being in debt and struggling financially can have a serious impact on your mental health. When new clients start working with us, we ask them a series of questions to better understand their situation. This includes asking them how they are feeling. This question always sees at least three quarters of our clients sharing that their mental health has been negatively impacted and they are feeling stressed and anxious. On this #WorldMentalHealthDay, we encourage anyone struggling with their finances to get in touch with a local debt advice organisation. We know it is difficult to talk about money, but we promise you will feel better once you are being supported by a debt adviser. Remember, debt advice should be a free and regulated service. You can find where you can get advice in your local area via Money Helper ⬇ https://lnkd.in/eSrk4N75 #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwareness #DebtAdvice #MoneyEducation

At our Move4Change event THIS Saturday, we are incredibly excited to share that Okechukwu will be joining us to provide entertainment for our supporters to enjoy. "My name is Okechukwu, a twenty-three year old young person living under Youth Community Home. I found my voice after a season of loss in my family during the pandemic and have been singing ever since. In that time I have written and recorded songs to complete an album that tells the story of my journey through homelessness and coming to terms with my sexuality. Today, I am happy to share my love for music with anyone open to listen and I am grateful to have a space like Move4Change to shine some light. Finally, I hope to pursue music as a career, with plans to finish producing my album and continue performing live." Move4Change is a family friendly event that sees supporters come together to raise vital funds for our work in Hammersmith and Fulham. We would love to see YOU there, so make sure to check out the link below to sign up! https://lnkd.in/exPcvf8x Hammersmith & Fulham Council H&F Giving Hammersmith United Charities Saint Paul's Hammersmith Benefact Trust #Move4Change #ChallengeEvent #Fundraising #London #Hammersmith #Fulham #Walk #Cycle #DebtAdvice #MoneyEducation

Conan, a Crosslight Hammersmith supporter, attends Move4Change every year and shares why it is such an important event. “Crosslight Hammersmith is a vital charity that’s there for people when they’re at their most vulnerable, and can help them to transform their lives. We’re also a local charity, and our model involves local people helping local people. Move4Changes raises vital funds, but also gets us into our local community to start conversations about the importance of neighbours helping neighbours."
