SEBUARY!
(**update**
Just to add some more cramps and strain to my knee. I will be running a half marathon on Saturday 21st Sebuary in Stellenbosch, South Africa.
This February myself and some friends from all over the world will be running for my brother Seb.
Seb was someone who brought warmth, humour, and light into the lives of the people who knew him. He was loved deeply, and he mattered more than words can say. Losing him has left a space that will never be filled, and our family is still learning how to carry that grief day by day.
Seb died by suicide. And while I can’t change what happened, I can try to do something with the love I still have for him. That’s why I’m running 5 kilometres every single day in February—a month we’re calling Sebuary. Some days will be hard, some will hurt, and some will feel impossible. But none of it compares to the pain of losing him, or to the silent battles so many people are fighting every day.
I’m raising money for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), a charity that works tirelessly to prevent suicide and support people who are struggling. CALM exists to remind people that they are not alone, that help is available, and that their lives are worth fighting for.
If you’re able to donate, share, or even just take a moment to think of Seb, it would mean the world to me. This is for him—and for everyone who needs to hear that they matter, that they are loved, and that it’s okay to ask for help.
Thank you for being here .
We’re Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), and we’re a suicide prevention charity. We’ve got loads of tools and resources to help people find the support they need, including a life-saving helpline for people who can’t see a way forward, have lost someone to suicide, or are worried about their friends or loved ones.
£12.20 is enough to fund one potentially life-saving call.
