Story

I have stupidly decided to run the Great North Run again in memory of my dad, Martin, on what would have been the day before his 55th birthday. 

This time I've decided to raise as much money as I can for CALM, a charity with an aim to prevent male suicide around the country.  It's finally becoming more normal to talk about mental health, let's keep going and take the taboo nature away from the word 'suicide'. 

Any donations no matter how small will be greatly appreciated by myself and this amazing charity.  X

The Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) is leading a movement against male suicide, the single biggest killer of men under the age of 45 in the UK. Our goal is a life less miserable for you, your friends, your family and for all men.CALM'S SOLUTION> A free helpline 0800 585858 and webchat (5pm12am daily), which are confidential, anonymous and staffed by trained professionals> Bereavement support through the Support After Suicide Partnership, hosted by CALM> www.theCALMzone.net is CALMs website, hosting inspiring content written by men for men alongside information and support> Successful campaigns tackling stereotypes of masculinity, suicide and male mental health, including #BiggerIssues, #ManDictionary, #DontBottleItUp and #Project84CALMs helpline and webchat services directly prevented 647 suicides in 2018. Help us save more men's lives.
