I know E cards have become all the rage and, as much as I would love you to have one of Leah’s beautiful cards gracing your mantelpiece, I have decided this year to support charity.
£500 for Mind - for better mental health
I am donating £500 to Mind in recognition of the mental health struggles we have all faced this year.
My family have been deeply affected this this year, from ongoing chronic mental health issues to bereavement. As a business owner in the wedding industry, this year has involved much pastoral care for the team and clients alike. I can only offer this in an intuitive way; I am not trained, and am horrified by the lack of access to basic mental health care on the NHS. I am also staggered by the cost of private counselling which effectively discriminates on the grounds of affordability.
One of my aims as an employer this year is to find a way of including better access to support services for my team and to continue to ensure that The Chapel is a safe space for people to discuss their own challenges.
Giving back to you - £100 each for 5 of your chosen charities
I would also like to give back to you and causes that are close to your heart. If you work for or are actively supporting a charity I will give 5 donations of £100 plus ‘airtime’ on our Instagram Grid and Stories.
Please email your submissions to hello@missbush.co.uk with your chosen charity, reasons and if possible links and images!
Sending all our seasonal love and yellow hearts,
Emma xxx
