RED RUN 2024 · 23 November 2024 ·

Controlling Chemsex is a charity created and run by professionals with long experience providing Chemsex support, many of whom have struggled with Chemsex in the past themselves. We are here to provide a new kind of Chemsex intervention to reinforce the support that is currently available, using new technologies to facilitate access to support for everybody, in order to make things as easy as possible for people who find it really difficult to access support, and respecting the fact that confidentiality is highly important for them.

Story

'Tis the season!

My birthday is in November, and so is the Red Run, so why not kill two birds with one stone and help me raise funds for a wonderful charity that supports members of the LGBTQ+ community in overcoming their addiction to chemsex?

For those who may not know, the gay community is currently facing a chemsex crisis. As time goes by, believe it or not, crystal meth and GHB are becoming more popular. Unfortunately, the stigma associated with these drugs often leads gay men to feel ashamed of their use, which can result in isolation from healthy environments and people, addiction, and, in some cases, even death.

Controlling Chemsex is an incredible charity that tackles this epidemic. They help thousands of community members develop healthier habits and, hopefully, get off these substances altogether.

I think their work is fantastic, but like many small charities, they often struggle with funding. If you could chip in with anything, it would be amazing!

Wish me luck and hope that my weak ankles survive the 10k!
