Because Waymark is a charitable trust we are always in need of money and resources to enable us to offer low cost, affordable counselling and therapy to the people of East Kent. It costs around £40 to provide a counselling session and many of our clients are unable to afford this.

Our day-to-day financing mainly comes from the contributions clients choose to make, according to their own assessment of their means. We are keen to help those of limited resources, whilst letting them retain their dignity.

It is important we keep our doors open to those who cannot afford to pay full professional fees.

As more clients use our services the number who require subsidy accordingly grow. As more need our help there is an increasing gap in revenue and in the last year we needed to raise £12,000 extra to meet our costs.

In addition the Charity Commission rightly expect us to build up some reserves. We therefore invite donations to enable us to continue our valuable work in meeting increasing needs evident in today's society.

We are a registered Charity and your donations can be gift-Aided, enabling us to recover tax paid on the sum. Our treasurer will gladly explain details.
