This year Gemma, our CEO, has been doing lots of silly things to raise money for @LifecraftCP + to make us laugh. She's nearly reached her target of £650. Visit https://t.co/zoeDJ45RBq to watch her catch water balloons while on a swing! If you can, please donate. #MentalHealth

I wore my wellies to work today (yes, I know lots of you probably do that regularly, but I work in an office in a community building). As well as looking daft, it was incredibly hot…!

[GemBarron @gem_barron]

After a specific request, next challenge complete. My amazing son helped out by throwing the water balloons (he was desperate to 😂).

Thank you to everyone who has sponsored me and for all the wonderful encouragement xx

More to come…

[GemBarron @gem_barron]

@erbradfield Good thing I didn’t do that one with you anywhere near!

[GemBarron @gem_barron]

The second of yesterday’s challenges... Given how much I HATE bananas, this feels like it was an amazing achievement. It won’t, however, ever be repeated 🤢

[GemBarron @gem_barron]

A day wearing pants over my jeans 🫣 It felt much more embarrassing than I thought it would!

https://t.co/xw82aEm0aY

[GemBarron @gem_barron]

Planning to complete a couple of challenges today 😬

https://t.co/9cnkfSC9SB

[GemBarron @gem_barron]

@erbradfield Many were suggested by our service users, so at least they’ll have fun laughing at me!

[GemBarron @gem_barron]

Over the rest of the year I’ll be doing some random challenges to raise money for Lifecraft (amazing mental health charity).

https://t.co/GmYphvQddU

Can you donate a small amount to support the charity and see photos/videos of me doing daft things? 😊

Thank you x

[GemBarron @gem_barron]

Thank you to our fabulous volunteers. We celebrate you and appreciate you every single day 👏👏👏

It's the final day of #VolunteersWeek. We want to celebrating all the wonderful people who have given their time to Lifecraft this year and the impact their volunteering has. #MentalHealth #Helpline #Counselling #Trustee
