Zachary Geddis Trust

Transcript

00:00From our poster on today, I'm sure you're all aware that it is Zachary's 28th birthday,

00:06another birthday that he spends in heaven.

00:08But for those who have been with us for a long period of time, since the very beginning,

00:13will know that we actually developed and launched the Zachary Geddes Break the Silence Trust

00:17on the 16th of October 2017, marking what would have been Zachary's 21st birthday.

00:23So with that, the Zachary Geddes Break the Silence Trust is 7 years old today,

00:28and I suppose we felt as though that today would be a good time to announce some changes

00:32that are going to be taking place within the organisation.

00:35On the 30th of September 2024, it was decided by the Board and myself

00:40that we were going to change the name of the organisation.

00:43You will slowly see our socials all change over hands as well,

00:46as we start to implement the new name moving forward.

00:50I'm sure you can imagine the Zachary Geddes Break the Silence is very lengthy,

00:54and with that, we just wanted to shorten it down a little bit,

00:57but still keep the mission, the value and Zachary's name, face and story

01:02at the forefront of the organisation, just as it's been the past 7 years.

01:06So from today, moving forward, the organisation is now going to be referred to as the Zachary Geddes Trust.

01:12And our tagline from now on, just a little bit below that, will be Breaking the Silence on Mental Health.

01:18But I hope everybody's having a good day, and that you like the changes moving forward.

01:23And if anybody ever has any questions, queries or wants to get on board with the Zachary Geddes Trust,

01:28then you know where to contact me, and I hope to hear from you soon.

01:31Thank you. Bye.
