Lindengate’s 5 Way Challenge

Join our Virtual Challenge
Take part in our first virtual fundraising event to help raise money for Lindengate. Set yourself a challenge based on the 5 Ways to Wellbeing – you’ll be making a difference to your own wellbeing whilst supporting Lindengate.

It’s Mental Health Awareness Week 10-16 May and this year’s theme is nature, so if you can pick a challenge that gets you outdoors – even better!

WHEN: challenges can start anytime from 1 May and must be completed by 31 July 2021.
WHAT: you can do any activity in a location of your choice, in line with Government guidelines and social distancing rules.

How to Take Part
1. Set your challenge – it can be anything. You could use the number 5 as your inspiration or focus on an idea that links to the 5 Ways to Wellbeing.
2. Set up your VirginGiving page and share with your friends, family and colleagues to collect your sponsorship money. www.virgingivingmoney/lindengate.org.uk.
3. Start your challenge. You can do this on your own, with your family, or as a team (in line with Government guidelines and social distancing rules).
