I'm taking on 5K a Day in October for Campaign Against Living Miserably. I'm raising money to support their lifesaving services, and your contribution will help them reach more people. We’re the Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) and we’re taking a stand against suicide. That means standing against feeling hopeless, standing up to stereotypes and standing together to show life is always worth living. Every week 125 people in the UK take their own lives. CALM exists to change this - by offering life-saving services, provoking national conversation, and bringing people together to reject living miserably.
In 2019, my sister ended her life after several years of struggling with depression. I also work as a counsellor and many of my clients are struggling with low moods, depression, and suicidal thoughts. I am walking in my sister's memory, as well as the people who have lost all hope and might access a service like CALM.
