Fancy dinner in Crewe to round off 30th anniversary year for charity with office in the town
A local charity has announced a delicious event in Crewe, to round off and mark their 30th anniversary year.
Visyon, is youth mental health charity started in Congleton, and then opened an office in Crewe.
They provide support to the emotional health of children, young people and their families across Cheshire East.
They used to be based at Breeden House, but are now based at 6 Chantry Court, Forge Street, Crewe CW1 2DL, having moved there earlier this year.
And next month, the charity will host an unmissable event for foodies in Crewe, in honour of the youth wellness charity.
On October 17, Visyon will host a gourmet dining event at Cheshire College South & West in Crewe.
Linda de Sa has been fundraising and marketing manager at Visyon since February 2022.
"Visyon couldn't let 2024 pass by without marking the opportunity with some special events, so gather for good with us at The Academy Restaurant, Cheshire College South, for the ultimate dining experience," she said.
"Enjoy an evening that truly embodies the spirit of young people supporting young people.
"We look forward to dining with you, and supporting Visyon."
The treat for the tastebuds takes place from 7pm to 10:30pm, at The Academy Restaurant, Cheshire College South & West, Dane Bank Avenue, Crewe, Cheshire, CW2 8AB.

And the upcoming five-course meal fundraiser is not the only news in planet Visyon.
Last week, Visyon held an open afternoon and AGM, marking their milestone 30 years of providing free mental health support to thousands of children since its founding in 1994.
The charity was established in response to the tragic suicide of 16-year-old school girl, Lucy, and its roots remain firmly planted in the local community.
Visyon claims to be the only service in the area offering mental health support free of charge to children and young people in the local community. Through their unique Open Access service, children, young people and their families can receive a face-to-face appointment within 10 days of making an initial call.
"Children and young people live in an increasingly complex and hyper connected world, which can be hard to process and understand," said Linda.
"They are taking the first brave step to ask Visyon for support when they recognise that issues like anxiety, low mood, anger, self-harm or thoughts of suicide are impacting on their day to day lives, relationships, behaviour and ability to achieve their potential.
"These mental health issues can stem from factors including bullying, bereavement, illness, family challenges and the impacts of poverty.
"These issues have become more complex since the pandemic and associated lockdowns, interruptions to education schedule and the cost of living crisis.
"Our registered charity provides free, friendly and inclusive safe spaces.
"We do this from the main bases in and Crewe and Congleton and in schools across Cheshire East, ensuring vulnerable children aged 11-19 are heard and have access to the information and support they need to talk openly about their mental health experiences.
"Thank you to everyone in Cheshire East and beyond for their support."
From April 2023 to March 2024, Visyon in Crewe offered 313 initial appointments to 225 children in Crewe.
The mental health support charity also holds workshops for parents.
