So folks, myself and the EOS crew are putting on a charity fun run and after party in Antigua on Thursday 8th December! We are raising money for ‘MANUP?’ who specialise in Men’s Mental Health 💪 I’ll include a link to their ethos below! 

I’m sure many of you will have experienced ill mental health in your life, be it personal or someone close to you. We know from figures that men are much less likely to seek help and that’s why 80% of all suicides are men. The stigma around male mental health is suffocating for a lot of us and so we don’t feel we have the avenues to speak out and open up, when in reality if you looked close to home you’d find your closest friends and family are there for you wholeheartedly. Some struggle to open up to those close to us and so that’s where ‘ManUp?’ come in. They offer 1-to-1 chats with volunteers that have been in their situation, they offer a platform for others to share their stories and in turn influence a huge group of struggling people, they organise events in schools, communities, workplaces and universities etc. They are breaking the stigma.

They are however a charity and we would like to raise money for them so have opened this JustGiving page, where people can donate kindly and help! Please, if you can, dig deep ❤️ Instead of a round of drinks this weekend, maybe use it as a donation and help other men struggling with their mental health. 

We will keep you updated with details of the event and pictures! Thanks to everyone who gets involved ❤️
