On the 26th August 2018 I am traveling to Sri Lanka for a 5 week mental health placement. This placement is through the global mental health charity SLV Global.
The aim of the charity is to provide therapy and promote positive mental health in areas of the world that struggle to understand the importance of mental health.

In Sri Lanka I will be living with a local family and embracing their culture and way of life while working alongside professionals in the local community and schools. It will be my responsibility to plan and manage sessions to suite each situation to provide the maximum impact I can during my 5 weeks. 

I would be extremely grateful for any donations made, thank you for your time.
