Ell Rundle

Ell is taking on the 20-hour challenge to support youth mental health and raise awareness about the importance of prevention.

I'm shutting up for those who struggle to speak up.

If you know me, you know I never shut up.

BUT In order to raise funds for mental health charity 20Talk, I'm going to take on the challenge of sitting in a 2 metre square box for 20 hours with no technology and no talking. All I will have is my own thoughts, a journal and a chair to sit on.

So why am I doing this?

To challenge myself, and to get your attention.

Your contribution goes towards 20Talk's relatable prevention campaigns.

They are a mental health charity that makes education cool and accessible.

A charity for young people by young people.

Your generous donations go towards:

Every $120 puts a young person through a one day Mental Health Maintenance cours
Expanding 20Talk's online resources and 60,000+ social media community
Running large-scale interactive mental health events

I think improving mental health literacy, removing harmful stigma, and encouraging professional help-seeking are so important in preventing people from getting to crisis point in the first place.

Thank you for taking the time to read this post and for donating to the cause if you're able.

If you ever need to chat, I’m always here. Love you all and thanks again!
