The Story

Hi! Thanks for visiting our page :-) In lieu of presents, Henry would like to collect donations for The Cart Shed, which is a charity based in North Herefordshire, very close to where Henry grew up! Henry is very proud of his Herefordshire roots, it's a very special place and is a large part of who Henry is today. The Cart Shed charity transforms lives. They work with adults and young people experiencing mental health difficulties or with those of us who have emotional imbalances in our lives. The Cart Shed is based in beautiful woodland and on a working farm. They run courses for all ages, using enriching and engaging woodland activities such as woodcraft and coppice craft as well as horticulture to empower us to self-manage our mental and physical health in a sustainable way. Sessions are run by tutors, occupational therapists and mental health practitioners to help build confidence, identify barriers to skills development and explore other issues that might be making life challenging. Since the pandemic, there's been unprecedented demand for places on these courses, as besides taking a toll on our physical health, the past few years have also presented mental challenges, especially for young people. The average cost of a day at The Cart Shed is £100. This includes transport, access to qualified occupational therapists and other health care professionals, skilled crafts tutors and a host of activities including coppicing, coppice crafts, horticulture and basket making. ​ Any amount you can donate can go towards securing a place for a person in need, or else towards buying much needed tools to facilitate the classes. Thanks so much again for visiting our page, and for helping give back to the Herefordshire community. - Liz and Henry
