LIGHT A FLARE

Every great adventurer has that story.

​

The one where they got into trouble, and nearly paid the ultimate price.

It always starts well.  But then something terrible happens.  Something that they couldn't foresee or control: a freak snow storm, falling rocks, an avalanche, a sudden illness.  With the sun going down, and darkness surrounding them, they have nowhere to go.  Their fate is out of their hands. They literally can't see any way out - one wrong step for example, and they are dead.

​

So, they do the right thing.  They light a flare and call out for help.  Sometimes, the mountaineer is helped and they are able to continue their climb.  Other times, they get brought back down the mountain - down but not out.  They will climb again.  Better, stronger and wiser.

​

Life is like that.  Tough times come to everyone.  Sometimes it feels like being on that mountain ledge - overcome by darkness with seemingly no way forward.  When that time comes - don't do it alone.  Light a flare.

​

How it works

​

1.  Email theprausmovement@outlook.com with the subject line, 'Light the Flare'.  Give a brief overview of why you are seeking some help.  This is completely confidential.

​

2.  A team member will reach out to you to arrange to meet for coffee or for a walk out in nature (which ever you prefer).

​

3.  During the coffee or the walk, the Praus Movement team member will listen to you and, if appropriate, help you come up with a plan of action.  Further walks/coffees will be an option.  Again, confidentiality will be maintained at all times.

​

Remember: It takes great courage to face challenges in all forms.  We support you.
