Report by Duncan Williams for Pulman's Weekly News
Action East Devon has been selected to take part in the Big Give Christmas Challenge 2025, the UK’s largest match-funding campaign. This is the first year the charity has joined the national initiative, which doubles every donation made by the public during the campaign week.
The charity aims to raise £4,000 to support its Headlight peer-support groups for young people facing mental health challenges. Headlight currently runs community-based groups in Axminster, Ottery St Mary and Seaton, and is planning to open new groups in Honiton and Sidmouth in 2026.
