KYDS School Competition
Raising money for young people in need
KYDS is the Fun Run's main beneficiary and they are keen to get local schools they work with to participate, have fun and help raise funds.
KYDS aim to ensure that vulnerable young people are not overwhelmed by the many issues that may confront them. KYDS provides easily accessed, personalised counselling and mental health support services, family counselling, and early intervention and wellbeing workshops. The need has increased in the last two years, and raising extra funds has become ever more important, in fact - vital. More details will be posted about this schools campaign soon.
