Update:

In light of the current situation in The Middle East, our challenge in Jordan was cancelled and instead, we’re heading to Cambodia in November. Still a trek and still fundraising for CALM, so please keep me supported.

The moment I fell in love with walking was probably the one when I took my first step - and since then I can't imagine my life without it. Deprive me from walking and my mental health will suffer.

So when an opportunity to combine walking with fundraising for CALM arose, I couldn't say no and in November 2023 I am doing a 5-day trek: over 75 km through the heat of the desert to Petra. It'll push me out of my comfort zone and will take a lot of preparation to get ready, but I know that every drop of sweat will be worth it and I hope you can support my efforts - all donations will be greatly appreciated.

Why is it worth to support the campaign

On average, 125 lives in the UK are lost every week to suicide. One suicide directly affects 135 people - leaving a lasting impact not only on immediate family and friends, but on colleagues, neighbours and acquaintances, too. Imagine, CALM staff answers a call every 66 seconds - they listen, talk and help people struggling with life. Your donation will allow them continue their great job.  

The Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) is leading a movement against suicide, the single biggest killer of men under the age of 45 in the UK. Anyone can hit crisis point. CALM run a free and confidential helpline and webchat 7 hours a day, 7 days a week for anyone who needs to talk about life's problems.
