Alan Jay completes 24 hour charity house mix

 

Congratulations to Air 107.2’s Alan Jay, who has completed a non stop 24 hour house music marathon – all to support a very worthwhile local cause!

EDP Reach is a free and confidential drug and alcohol service for the residents of Dorset.

They have a Weymouth hub, as well as hubs in Gillingham and Wimborne, and lots of satellite centres around the county where you can access support locally.

EDP Reach helps both young people and adults, and is free and confidential. There’s a free phone number to access support or you can leave a message on the website and a member of the team will be back in touch to help. Call 0800 043 4656 or visit www.edp.org.uk to start receiving help today.

Alan Jay says, “After about seven hours, at about 1am, I started to feel very tired and thought that perhaps 24 hours was a bit of an ask, but a couple of cups of tea gave me a new mindset and I focused on the reason I was doing the challenge in the first place! Thinking of the work of EDP Reach was all the motivation I needed.

“Come the end, after 24 hours, I was exhausted both physically and mentally, but very pleased that I had made it. EDP Reach have been so supportive of my own recovery journey, so I wanted to give something back to them by doing this challenge and raising some cash in the process. So please, there’s still time to donate!”
