In 2003 the Scottish Daily
Record raised funds for Penumbra through their ‘Save
Our Kids’ Appeal. The Appeal was set up in response
to the soaring numbers of young Scots attempting or
committing suicide. By working together, Penumbra and
the Daily Record
have raised over £150,000 and also increased the
profile of mental health issues amongst
the general public. We
are very grateful to the readers of the Daily Record
for their support.
 All
funds raised are being used to expand our support services
for young people experiencing distresss and new projects
are underway in Fife, West Lothian and Aberdeen. More will follow
in other areas of Scotland. Penumbra's partnership
with the Daily Record has now finished, but we continue
to welcome donations to spefically help fund our Young
People Services.
It’s easy to make a donation: contact Penumbra's
Fundraising Dept on 0131 475 2380.
Alternatively, why not organise your own event, we can
provide you with fundraising packs
with lots of ideas for local, fun activities.
