I am participating in the One Million Steps in One Hundred Days Challenge between September 10th and December 18th 2024 in aid of PTSD999 and the Firefighter Behavioral Health Alliance (FFBHA).

I am International Outreach Ambassador to the Firefighters Behavioral Health Alliance (FFBHA) and a supporter of PTSD999. I was a firefighter for 30 years and am living with PTSD. Suicide and PTSD are huge issues among firefighters and emergency services personnel. Their repeated exposure to trauma can lead to severe mental health issues, yet they are often reluctant to seek help due to stigma. By supporting these charities, we can provide essential resources, raise awareness, and foster a culture where they feel empowered to prioritise their mental well-being, ultimately saving lives.
