As a Housemaster, I talk a lot to my boys about looking after and supporting each other so I’m putting my money where my mouth is and taking on a challenge in support of CALM, a charity dedicated to standing against suicide and supporting people who struggle with their mental health.

On July 4th, I will be competing in a 100 mile running race from Bamburgh Castle to Edinburgh Castle. I was worried about making this challenge public as it’s such a huge undertaking but every donation to this charity can make a real difference and having known people who weren’t lucky enough to get that lifesaving support, I couldn’t miss the opportunity to do anything I could to help.

Any donations to CALM would be hugely appreciated but even if you’re fed up of people asking you for money, even if you just call a friend to check in on them, this will have been worthwhile 🙏
