Christchurch artist and adventurer Emma Timmis is running around Hagley Park for 24 hours straight to raise much needed funds for Youthline. She began at 10am on Friday.

"After seeing Youthline on the news recently I felt I had to do something. Youthline has been inundated with calls from struggling young people since lockdown last year. Mental health is so important and shouldn’t be overlooked," Emma says.

"After struggling with my own mental health in the last few years I know how hard it is to reach out for help. Having an organisation that you can call or contact online is hugely important for young people today."

I am looking for healthy people to come in to my office in Christchurch CBD for around an hour, on two occasions, to complete some pen and paper activities with me (fun ones according to previous participants!). Please note that you cannot have had a mental health diagnosis at any point to take part in this study (e.g. depression).

This is a volunteer opportunity, but you will also receive $50 petrol vouchers as a thank you for your time and travel. Additionally, you can feel good knowing you are giving your time towards mental health research!

If you are interested please email me at zoe.barczyk@postgrad.otago.ac.nz , or visit the website listed, as I will need to send you an information sheet to read over and go through some screening questions.

Thanks 🙂
