Finally, after much huffing and puffing - and huge apologies to Mellow Parenting for the delay - we are finally getting out Corporate letters, requesting sponsorship and an opportunity to work with employees.
Mellow Parenting is an amazing charity, based in Glasgow, overseen by our wonderful friend Rosemary, and we have been discussing this for ages. Sadly, as I am the only admin person here, and we have no money left in the bank, we have not been able to print letters or pay postage. And other important work has also got in the way - but as funding is now fundamental to everything it is essential we focus on this. We believe that HMHB and MP both can offer incredible intervention for employees,, than can only then benefit the employer.
Thankfully, another friend of ours, Single Homeless Project has agreed to help. By tomorrow we will have printed off 250 letters, and the first 50 envelopes (stuffed with letter, page of social media/media links, flyers for fitness, walk, HMHB, and the fantastic Healthy Babies project for employers managed by Mellow Parenting) have already been posted.
We have no money for postage, so am trying to find other local organisations this week to send the other 200. We then aim to try and get 150 out next week. All ready for Mental Health Awareness Week in May.
