Such a boost to get a lovely email from 2025 Mental Health & Wellbeing Wales Awards to tell us that Daring to Dream are finalists!
Inspirational Charitable Organisation
“We are delighted to inform you that Daring to Dream have been shortlisted as a finalist for the Mental Health & Wellbeing Wales Awards 2025 in the category of Inspirational Charitable Organisation.”
Daring to Dream is the emotional (not mental) health charity
Not many charities talk about #emotionalhealth and its importance in living well with illness. But with 1.2 million of us in Wales whose lives are affected by illness, as are the lives of our families, carers, friends, and clinicians – then making space to talk about our feelings arising from illness is an essential.
Thriving not just surviving
We strive to enable those living with illness to thrive and:
– Be supported in leading fulfilling lives through both emotional and clinical care,
– Experience a reduced risk of developing mental health issues related to physical illness
Thank you
First and foremost to the Daring to Dream #trustees, to Sophie Howe, our patron, to Hamed Amiri and Hessam Amiri (our ambassadors) and the many, many people and organisations who have understood and joined up with us to help #makespacestotalk.
Our very best wishes to all the other finalists
Around Wales, so many individuals and organisations strive to do good, to support others, to build a better life and it is so encouraging – particularly against the current backdrop of so much gloomy news.
Pob lwc pawb! Llongyfarchiadau!
