Family fun day in Bedford to raise funds for Mental Health UK

With an estimated one in four people in the UK experiencing a mental health problem each year, Mental Health UK delivers services UK wide supporting those with complex mental health needs. Alliance Consulting Group Ltd in Bedford, a committed partner to the charity is currently preparing for it's second annual fundraising event which will take place on May Bank Holiday Sunday.

Bedford-based business Alliance Consulting Group Ltd has been a dedicated partner to Mental Health UK since losing their company founder, Grant Mead to suicide in July 2021.

Having seen first hand the devastating effects a mental health illness can impose, they are committed to raising funds and awareness for this hugely important cause.

Further to the success of their Family Fun Day in September 2023 which took place in Grant's home village of Thurleigh and raised over £2,000, the team are now preparing for their second fundraiser which they hope will be even bigger and better.

Kicking off at 2pm, food vendors will be available all day and into the evening along with a desserts truck and ice cream van. The children can expect to be entertained with a bouncy castle, fun fair, colouring competition, pamper stations and karaoke. There will also be football and rounders matches taking place throughout the day for kids and adults alike along with a tug of war. Karaoke will continue late into the evening when the raffle will also be drawn.

Alliance Consulting would welcome sponsors for the event from their local business community both through financial contributions and raffle prizes. Please contact either Maria Mazzei or Reda Mead on [email protected] or 01234 355311.

The team looks forward to seeing lots of people on the day and those who cannot attend but wish to donate can do so by scanning the QR code on the poster.
