Walk and Talk 2021 Crowdfunds with Zaar

The popular community project that brings people together needs public support to continue

A project designed to bring the community together to walk, talk and find support has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Zaar to keep going.

Walk and Talk is a free service that welcomes attendees of any age, sex or nationality to walk together in locations across the island, while chatting over with professionals and those with similar personal experiences, eventually gathering as a group to enjoy refreshments after the walk.

“Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, lonely, stressed, in the darkness of depression, suffering from an eating disorder or anxiety, we will support you,” explains Walk and Talk founder Rachael Hollwey. “Walk and Talk has had an overwhelming impact in the community and the hard work and time dedicated to it is worth every moment. I have been developing it over the last year alongside my full-time work and current medical battles. Unfortunately, these are worsening and require ongoing treatment abroad, so my immediate concern turned to figuring out how Walk and Talk would continue. So, for my birthday this year, I’m asking people to help me keep Walk and Talk going, through raising enough money to fund the remaining walks in 2021.”
