Chartiable issues that are close to my heart

On the walk back from shopping earlier, Luke and I got to talking about charities.

What charities we could set up if we had the money and the influence.

For me, there are three main areas that I would like to have an impact on. In no particular order they are as follows:

1) Mental health.

I think that this is something that we are still discovering. I think that help, especially for young people is something that the NHS are lacking. If I could, I would try to help and relieve the stigma. Through some of my posts ( Socially awkward / my latest anxiety attack & Just one of those days...) and Vlog ( Depression and anxiety - an honest but blunt account) - I tried in a small way to help.

2) Leukaemia research

Cancer of this type is something that is currently affectin my family. There is still a lot that we are learning about it. I'd love to be able to assist in a breakthrough. To stop another family going through the pain

3) Animal rights

I love animals - I'm not sure if that has come across yet haha. I support the RSPCA. No animal should suffer. I'd open a rehoming centre if I could. Give the animals a second chance. I'd be naive to think that I could bring an end to animal testing.

These are just a few musings.

Let me know what charities you would help!

Thanks
