We’re Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), and we’re a suicide prevention charity. We host a helpline for people affected by suicide, as well as vital online resources for anyone who needs them.

Story

I'm running a half marathon in memory of my friend Tom, who died suddenly in January.

Last year I'd barely exercised in my whole life. I took up running in the early days of COVID. When I do Havering Half Marathon on September 12, it'll be the farthest I've ever run.

Here is a message from Tom's family: Our clever, funny much-loved son/brother came to a point where he could no longer reach out for help.

We know how much he was loved by a huge a network of family and friends, and we know you would like to do something so worthwhile in his name.

Together we can help CALM help young men in similar circumstances, preventing them and their families going through such sadness and devastation. 

Thank you so much,

Mary, Chris, Jon and Graham
