🌄 Join us for a unique fundraiser with Global Adventure Challenges - climbing Snowdon to see a spectacular bucket-list sunrise!

This August, we're heading back to Snowdonia to climb Wales' highest peak while raising funds for Mersey Care NHS Charity - supporting local people accessing Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust services through the provision of transformative mental health and wellbeing projects ✨

🌟 The trek up takes around 3.5 hours to summit where you'll see the sky break into a stunning sunrise before heading back down for a special celebratory breakfast 💙

Love a brew and a slice of cake? Join us to celebrate the NHS and everyone who makes it what it is by hosting an NHS Big Tea event! You can celebrate with friends and family, at your workplace, school or local community event -- any way you choose! 🍰🧁

This year the event is extra special as it celebrates two milestones: the NHS turning 78 and Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust turning 25! 🎂

While the NHS' official birthday is on Sunday 5 July, tea parties can take place at a time that suits between Mon 29th Jun - Fri 10th Jul 2026. Your tea party will bring people together and make a real difference to local mental health and wellbeing projects.

💙 Every brew shared helps fund initiatives that go beyond standard NHS provision!

💙 This we'd like to share how your support is making a difference for carers across our communities 💙

Thanks to our amazing donors and fundraisers, we’ve been able to support our Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust Carer Engagement Team in a number of ways including funding arts and crafts activities at Carers Cafés across Cheshire and Merseyside. These cafés give unpaid carers the opportunity to connect with others sharing similar experiences, take valuable time for themselves, and access helpful information and advice to support them in their caring role. Taking part in arts and crafts has had a meaningful impact, with feedback showing it is helping to reduce stress and improve wellbeing 💙

Thank you for helping us make a difference!

It’s ! 🎉

A perfect moment to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported our charity through giving their time and expertise to make a real difference across Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust 💙

We have been so lucky to have many contractors support us on dedicated volunteering days which have seen outdoor spaces at Peasley Cross Hospital and Willow House transformed into tranquil havens for service users, patients and staff 🪴🌲🌻

If you'd like to get involved in future volunteering opportunities with Mersey Care NHS Charity we’d love to hear from you!

📩 [email protected]

Together, we can continue to support mental health and community services in hugely beneficial ways that typically fall outside of NHS funding.

Thank you Canon, A&B Engineering GRAHAM Group St Cuthbert's Catholic High School Chroda Facilities Management Branniff Joinery Ltd and all of the Mersey Care staff and volunteers who supported on the day and continue to do so 💙
