Story

About #loveYOUmore

We are a group of passionate human beings who want to raise awareness of mental health. We have a Facebook community that provides a safe space and exists to support and inspire, bring hope and unconditional love to all who need it. We also aim to raise money for mental health charities. You can join in with LoveYOUmore here> https://www.facebook.com/groups/LOVEYOUMORETODAY

Hi, I'm Karen and in September last year, we tragically lost Darran, my partner, to suicide. Now with others, I run #loveYOUmore supporting charities and helping more men and women who struggle with their mental health to open up in a positive unconditional space.

After losing Darran, I have experienced challenges with my own mental health and getting back out in nature to walk and feel better, so I have decided to take up the challenge to walk 1000 miles in 2020 with my dog Harry to help myself and to raise money for this amazing cause at the same time! Please sponsor me on this page to help me reach my goal and support the Lions' Barber Collective! ANY donation no matter how small is so gratefully received!

Updates on my walks will be posted on this page!

About the Lions Barber Collective: Our mission is to create non-clinical, non-judgemental safe spaces where people feel comfortable to talk about their mental health & signpost them to support and information. We do this by creating awareness, interest and desire in barbers to train & the general public to know where to find or access help. We will train the barbers using both our online and face to face BarberTalk training education packages that provide barbers with the skills to RECOGNISE, ASK, LISTEN and HELP TO HELP. Our vision is of a world free from suicide!

About the charity

We aim to raise awareness for mental wellbeing and suicide prevention, which we hope will lower the stigma and taboo surrounding them. We also aim to educate barbers to be able to RECOGNISE the signs, when to TALK, how to LISTEN and the ability to SIGNPOST those in their chairs and communities.
