Mental Health Awareness Week: Support YESS

From the 18th to the 24th of May, it’s the UK Mental Health Foundation’s Mental Health Awareness Week, and we at Kind wanted to take this opportunity to highlight the work that our Charity of the Year for 2020, YESS is doing at the moment.

Your Emotional Support Service (YESS) are a Mental Health and Well-being charity based in Uttoxeter Staffordshire and operating throughout the Midlands. During the Covid-19 Pandemic, they’re providing support via telephone and video conference at a time when many people are more in need than ever of assistance with the emotional and psychological challenges.

Kind’s Selena Tye will be running the Manchester Marathon to raise money for YESS, and you’ll hear more from us on that as closer to the time – the marathon is currently pushed back to October. For now, if you want to directly support the vital work YESS is doing, please consider donating here.
