I don’t often post like this, but I need to be completely honest with you all. UKSN is at a critical point, and without more support, the future is uncertain. If we don’t act now, the impact could be catastrophic.
We have come so far in the last year—just look at everything we’ve built together:
✔ Crisis Centre Guides to help in emergencies
✔ The UKSN Household Emergency Plan to keep families prepared
✔ Countless website upgrades and integrations to make resources more accessible.
We offer more than ever before, and we’re constantly improving. But behind the scenes, it’s incredibly tough. I work 40+ hours a week at my day job, then spend my nights and weekends keeping UKSN running. It’s exhausting, and extremely stressful. In fact, my health and mental wellbeing is really taking a beating from it.
I believe in UKSN with everything I have, and I know the impact we can make if we all pull together. That’s why I’m reaching out—not just as the person running UKSN, but as a friend who believes in this community and what it stands for.
