Well, we did it… the eight members of KAST Architects swam the RNLI Castle to Castle event from Falmouth to St Mawes and thanks to you guys we have managed to raise £5,250 for Man Down Cornwall, more than double our initial target!
Mental health issues are common within the architecture and construction industry. Unfortunately this can be particularly stigmatised in the male demographic and all too often goes unnoticed. At KAST we all hugely appreciate the intrinsic benefits that being in, beside or around the sea has on our mental health.
Man Down Cornwall, a Cornish based non-profit Community Interest Company, do amazing work to reduce this stigma and to bring down the number of male suicides.
As a studio we have also made a one off donation in support of the RNLI who organised the event and whose boundless work keeps people safe in and around the sea.
