My story

Employee Story: This charity is amazing as I have seen first hand the work they do, especially with children. One of my siblings children had a nervous breakdown during their GSCE'S whcih resulted in them being classified disabled with Schizophrenia. They were an A* student but left school with no qualifications, too much pressure from the school to do well. It has taken many years of support and help from hospital consultants and the support staff at Herts Mind Network to get them to a stable position where they are now the proud parent to 2 girls with a little boy on the way in August. They still suffer with negative mental health, but with the support of Herts Mind Network, their partner and their children lead a normal life. The Herts Mind Network Charity is amazing in the help and support they provide, not only just counselling but the other services, help and assistance they provide. This is why i believe they are a great charity for us at Planteria to raise much needed funds for them. The charity also sits well with our recent Planteria launch of Wellbeing & Mental Health Awareness.
