The Property Hub raise £1339 for tic+ by walking the Virtual London Marathon

On Sunday 3rd October, Team Property Hub made history as part of the world’s biggest-ever marathon. The London Marathon.

From its infancy 3 years ago, Directors Karren Simpson and Kate May have always wanted The Property Hub to be about more than just selling and letting houses “It’s really all about people – and we wanted to do something to help young people locally who are struggling with poor mental health in these difficult times.” says Karren. “So our team of 5 ladies who normally work together, on Sunday walked together to make a positive change in our town” adds Kate.

TIC+ (formerly known as teens in crisis) help over 3,000 children and young people between the age of 9-21 by providing free counselling and support for when life gets difficult. The services they provide can now be accessed face to face, online, or even anonymously through tic+ chat. There’s also support for parents and carers who are struggling to help their young people. www.ticplus.org.uk

Karren says “We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who donated. We’re leaving the Just Giving page open for a few more weeks in case others wants to support this good cause. Otherwise, feel free to pop in to the office on Gloucester Road – we’ll be delighted to see you!”

A big shout out to those who cheered us on and encouraged us as we smashed our 26.2miles around Ross town and outskirts on Sunday – your encouraging words really did spur us on!
