Grim Sweeper Metal Detecting C.I.C Cover Photo
Our mission is to bring the joy and tranquillity of metal detecting to people of all ages, who are experiencing mental health issues in their everyday life. Through the guided metal detector activity, participants benefit from being out in nature, learning a new skill and most importantly building relationships with people from their community and the community of metal detectorists. Metal detecting is an immersive experience, where your senses are focused on the metronomic sweep of the detector and the anticipation of discovery. This process brings about a release from low level mental health issues such as stress, anxiety and depression. We advocate an approach which is based in mindfulness techniques, bring people into the moment and away from the issues their mental health illness locks them into. The money you give will be used to take people out for a series of sessions to help those experiencing mental health issues and associated disadvantages. The impact of this can improve confidence and empower them to develop plans for a future where they become an active member of society and engage in activities to fulfil their potential. As a direct result of the impact that COVID-19 has had on many people's lives, we have a waiting list of referrals, and we want to be in a position to help them as soon as possible, your donation will do that.
