Our Charity Partners
Why We Care
Due to Wellbeing Umbrella’s own founding member’s personal difficulties finding wellness solutions, we understand the financial and awareness barriers to finding and receiving wellbeing solutions and treatments, so we are on a mission to help more people access the wellbeing choice and variety they deserve by raising awareness and funding through our collaborative Pay-it-Forward Wellness Events.
Who We Work With & How
Our Pay-It-Forward Wellness Events are all about making a difference in other people’s lives. Hosting a wellness event with us is a simple, fun and an easy way to help raise funds for our charity partners and make a difference to not only employee and community wellbeing, but also the wellbeing of women and children who are trying to rise positively through hard times caused by domestic abuse or violence.
Domestic Violence and Abuse charities within the U.K. help hundreds of women and their families affected every year to improve their mental health, confidence and wellbeing, in a bid to increase their life chance, independence and to experience a better quality of life.
Anyone can experience domestic violence regardless of race, ethnic or religious group, class, disability or lifestyle.
Women and children experiencing domestic abuse are 3 times as likely to develop a mental illness. This is why funds for wellness support and resources are vital.
We run our Pay-It-Forward Wellness events within the U.K, and aim to raise money for ‘domestic violence and abuse charities’ within each district we host our events in. Our community of wellbeing professionals contribute towards taking part in the event and 50% of profits go towards one of our charity partners.
How The Money We Raise Together Helps
Here’s some examples of how the money we raise through our Pay-It-Forward wellness events, with your support, can help women and children with their healing journey;
| Donation/ Funds raised | Helps to pay for the following type of wellness resources |
|---|---|
| £10 | could provide a woman with a scented eye pillow to help decrease stress hormones, provide comfort, boost mood, increase circulation, relieve pain, and release tense muscles. |
| £20 | 2 x wellness activities such as keep fit or wellbeing classes to help women engage in community activities, increase mood, confidence and independence. |
