I believe that life is worth celebrating, and always try to practice gratitude… but life can also be really, really hard.

Sometimes many of us find those difficult periods a challenge to navigate, and we’ve all been touched by the impact of poor mental health in one way or another. Suicide remains something many people find difficult to talk about, but having the conversation can genuinely save lives. So I’m hoping to play a small part in highlighting the importance of support and understanding, along with raising some money along the way.

That’s why I'm taking on 100 Miles in October for Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM). The support they provide can make a real difference when people need it most, and if raising a few pounds can help someone find a way through a difficult moment, every mile will be worth it.

CALM exists to support everyone through the messy, beautiful reality of being human. We make suicide prevention part of people’s daily lives. From our life-saving helpline, through to our practical tips, advice and resources - all our tools are designed to help you look after yourself and the people you care about.

Something we say a lot at CALM is that stopping suicide starts with all of us - one act at a time. No matter how big or small.

And by taking on 100 Miles in October, I'm playing my part in uniting against suicide.

Every £12.20 I raise could pay for a life-saving call to CALM's suicide prevention helpline. Helping more people to see a way forward.

Thank you for joining me in uniting against suicide.
