Cathy Press, one of the Kernos Centre's counsellors has parachute from a plane to raise funds for the Charity.
When asked why she was doing this Cathy replied " because I feel passionately that people should be able to get counselling when they need, and not be excluded on the grounds they can't afford to pay for it." Kernos receives no government funding and relies on donations, grants, fundraising and fees from clients who can pay.
It is ironic that when it is generally accepted that 'talking cures' work, there is no money provided for Charities like Kernos. Cathy's parachute jump is just one of the ways you could help support Kernos. Please do sponsor her! Call the Centre for more information and a sponsorship form or visit
