Ross’s story
I am raising funds for CATZERO by taking the challenge, in April, to sail from Hull to the Netherlands and back, having never sailed off-shore before.
Those who know me, see me helping on challenging land based events, but this is something truly new and a challenge for me as well as an opportunity to support the work of CATZERO.
CATZERO is a Hull based charity that use funding to deliver projects to young people, families, single parents and adults across the whole Humber region. Some of these individuals may be recovering from mental health issues, be very long term unemployed, service veterans, ex-drug users and ex-offenders.
Their success is evident when you look at the evidence, with more than 60 per cent of participants on CatZero programmes having moved into employment, education or training. CatZero can also demonstrate a 95 per cent retention / completion rate for participants who start with them. To date, they have helped over 2000 people and the case histories of our participants speak for themselves.
‘CatZero has helped me with facing my fears, helped me with my confidence. I’ve met new people and made friends,’ a programme participant.
