The ‘Mind-On’ charity in the centre of Orkney is vital to the well-being of many young people across the islands.
On this year’s Mental Health Awareness Day, a team of Scholes employees took to the Kirkwall shop to help make a difference.
They worked on the till, helped to sell some of the items and even spent an hour dusting the bric-a-brac!
The charity has raised over £100,000 in the last three years to help young people in Orkney with their mental health and prevent suicide.
Karen, Director of Scholes CA and Treasurer of Mind-On, said: “It was great to see so many of us volunteering and I really feel we made a huge difference.
“Orkney is a close-knit community and supporting such an important charity – dealing with such important issues – makes us all proud to be Orcadians.
“I’d like to thank the team for their hard work this Mental Health Awareness Day and point anyone struggling with their own challenges to the Mind-On charity.”
