Welcome to our May OTR Friends News! 🌻

Welcome to our May newsletter!

I hope that this email finds you well. This month we would like to share with you the results of all your extraordinary commitment to young people's mental health. Last year you raised for us £128,000!

I cannot tell you just how moved we all are by your generosity and care in those last 12 months. The total raised will go towards helping more young people in Bristol, South Glos (and soon, North Somerset!). Thank you so much!. Thank you so much! Thank you so much!

Here are our quick tips on how you can support us as your Charity of the Year:

nominate us as your charity of choice at work,
nominate us at your AGM/ Committee meeting,
if in doubt: ask your HR about the process of choosing a charity to support.

Here are some of the benefits of working with us:

promotion of young people's mental health across your company,
supporting young people's mental health in our area,
more direct access to our advice and signposting,
our Membership Team and Community Champion available to join your events to promote mental health in your company,
you will be kept up to date with the newest and most relevant offers from our training and enterprise arm, Diffusion.

Over the last few years, we have worked with fantastic local businesses, groups, and individuals and we are always open to new collaborations, so get in touch! We look forward to working with our friends and with new corporate supporters this year as well!

Thank you!

Our thanks go to...

A huge thank you to Natalie Read for coming back to complete her abseil this October. Natalie was planning to do this for us early last year, so it is lovely to see her back fundraising for us. If you would like to participate in this fantastic challenge, please let me know - Natalie is looking for people to join her!

Thank you for your continuous support and for helping us help young people's mental health.

Stay safe. Stay well. Stay connected.
