Story
Four years ago, I was in a very dark place.
Everything felt overwhelming, and I didn’t think I would get through it. I almost didn’t.
Mental health struggles don’t always look the way people expect. On the outside, I can be the fun, confident, “everything’s fine” person—but underneath, like so many others, I’ve had my own battles to fight.
But I did get through it. And now, I don’t take that for granted.
That’s why I’m running a half marathon in February 2026—to raise money for grassroots suicide prevention. Because the right support, at the right time, can genuinely save lives.
This isn’t just about running a race.
It’s about raising awareness, starting conversations, and helping others feel less alone.
If you’re able to donate, I’d be incredibly grateful.
And if you’re struggling—please know you’re not alone, and there is help out there.
Thank you for your support, I am eternally grateful.
A note from Grassroots:
When someone has thoughts of suicide, connecting with others can make all the difference. But reaching out can feel impossible. So many people go through this pain alone.
That’s why preventing suicide means working together. Together, we can fight dangerous stigma that stops people talking about suicide. Together, we can learn to recognise and support those at risk, and connect them with a network of lifesaving services. Together, we can prevent suicide.
Grassroots works to make sure nobody has to go through thoughts of suicide alone.
