Chris's fundraiser for Back & Forth Men’s Mental Health

Chris Day is raising money for Back & Forth Men’s Mental Health

459km Trek of the Camino de Santiago · 1 May 2025

Founded as a tribute to Marc Forth, whose life and legacy inspire our mission to make a difference. Driven by the understanding that men often face unique challenges in expressing their emotions and seeking help, we’ve created a safe and welcoming space where they can share their struggles without fear of judgement. Through open conversations, mutual support, and community connections, we aim to break the silence surrounding men’s mental health, challenge the stigma, and foster a sense of hope and healing for everyone involved. One step at a time.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This May I am embarking on a trek, hiking through Spain—a journey of over 450 km in just over three weeks to raise money for Back and Forth Men's Mental Health.

As my friends and family will know this is a challenge I would not have even thought about a year ago!! My partner-in-mischief, Alan, inspired me to do it with him and we thought it would be a chance to try do some good in the world. He is raising funds for DKMS because it is cause close to his heart https://www.justgiving.com/page/alan-malt-2?utm_source=IG.

I chose Back & Forth because I know the devastating impact that a lack of social and emotional connection can have for men. My goal is to raise £1,000 for Back & Forth because they are a peer support group who promote men’s mental health and well-being. They aim to reduce the stigma around men’s mental health and organise walks and other activities designed to encourage men to engage in conversation.
