Story

I've been thinking of challanging myself and also doing a bit for charity. Over the last few years Men's Health especially Mental Health has come to the forefront. This became even closer to home over the last few months with the loss of friends to Mental health issues and when my best friend was diagnosed with PTSD due to treatment as a child and in his teens. He kept things locked up inside until he couldn't face the world and tried to take his life, he didn't and is now getting help and support to help him cope. The biggest thing he did was to talk, to friends, family or too anyone that would listen.

I will therefore be pushing myself both physically and mentally by riding a spin bike from sun up to sun down on the longest day of the year, 21st June.(Approx 16 hours 40 mins)

There are 3 things I would like from you. Firstly come and join me @ Balance MK to help push me through the challange, secondly put your hand in your pocket and give to a great charity and thirdly and most importat - TALK, it's OK to not be OK!

#TaskMeAnything for CALM!£8 allows CALM to answer 1 potentially life-saving call to the helpline and webchat. Open 5pm - midnight everyday 0800 58 58 58.
