Sara Lee Trust celebrates Hastings and Rother Therapy Month

After a successful launch last year, the Sara Trust Lee Trust are once again looking forward to their Hastings and Rother Therapy Month this March. Looking to repeat their previous success, the Trust are seeking therapists and counsellors to volunteer their services in a bid to promote the positive impact therapy and counselling can have one’s mental health and well-being, writes Jordan Dixon.

In 2018, local charity The Sara Lee Trust launched the annual Hastings and Rother Therapy Month to help fund essential care and to raise awareness of how counselling and therapy can improve lives by having a positive impact on health and well-being. Last year, therapists helped to raise over £4,000, which supported forty local people to receive the specialist care they needed. This March, the Trust hopes to repeat that success.

Katie Jones, Fundraising Manager for the Trust said, “Over the month of March you can treat yourself to a therapy treatment or counselling session in return for a donation to the Trust. There’s an exciting range of sessions on offer, so it’s a perfect time to try something new.

While enjoying the benefits to your health and well-being you will also be contributing to the Trust’s campaign to support an additional forty local people this year who are affected by cancer and other life threatening illnesses.”

Taking part is simple:

1. Visit saraleetrust.org to see the exciting list of participating therapists and counsellors.
2. Contact your therapist of choice directly to book an appointment and please quote ‘The Sara Lee Trust Therapy Month’.
3. When you attend your appointment, please give your donation to the therapist. The suggested minimum donation is £10 for a half-hour appointment and £20 for an hour.

Sessions are limited, so please book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
