My Story

In October 2026 I will be undertaking one of the biggest challenges I have ever put my hand to!

I will be trekking the Vietnam Pu Luong trek for our sector colleagues and charity - The Electrical Industries Charity.

The Electrical Industries Charity (EIC) has been in existence for 120 years, and supports anyone who works in the Electrical or Energy industry and their immediate family.

They pride themselves in being an organisation that can offer free and confidential support to our industry when things get tough. They work to consider every factor and work with our industry members to generate the best possible outcome. On average the EIC sees up to 30 new cases a week, sometimes more. In light of the financial climate, the vast majority encompass money concerns in some capacity. Mental health sessions continue to be the most utilised provision among service users, industry wide.

Without your help, the service could not exist. Providing this assistance would not be possible. Your support, whether verbal, written or financial is invaluable to the EIC.

Early detection and early intervention is the key to effectively supporting our industry. This is sparked by education and understanding of the issues that may be faced by individuals.

The EIC are passionate about helping people in our industry and know that you are too. They rely solely on fundraising and that's why we need to Stand Together to support ourselves and our colleagues. I invite you to join them in actively challenging the stigma that surrounds asking for help and encourage those in need to reach out. Together, we can make a difference.

I will be taking on this challenging trek to raise much needed funds for those the Electrical Industries Charity support

If you can, please donate to my Vietnam Pu Luong Trek challenge page, any amount helps and supports my journey to support the EIC and the incredible work they do.
