With the London Marathon postponed, we are all invited to support charities through The 2.6 Challenge, a nationwide fundraising campaign launched in response to COVID-19 to Save the UK’s Charities.
The Chamberlain Dunn team are supporting The Centre for Sustainable Healthcare where the funds raised will be used to buy trees to plant at the Centre’s 190+ NHS Forest sites across the UK. These will enhance green spaces at hospitals and health centres, allowing people to enjoy green space at NHS sites for therapy, rehabilitation and relaxation.The Centre says that this is particularly important now, as the spread of COVID-19 is naturally causing high levels of stress and anxiety among healthcare workers. The British Medical Association has reminded NHS staff of the importance of looking after each other, as well as their patients, and has advised staff to call on tried and tested coping strategies, such as taking a break in fresh air.
NHS Forest sites are perfect as outdoor sanctuaries and oases of calm at this hectic time. You can read more about these wonderful woodland sanctuaries here: https://nhsforest.org
If you’d like to make a donation no matter how big or small go to our JustGiving page here.
