I'm fundraising for the Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM)

Shannon Ripsher is raising money for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably)

Walk 50 Miles in March for CALM · 1 March 2026 to 31 March 2026 ·

Walk 50 Miles in March to raise lifesaving funds for Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM). Every £12.20 raised is enough to answer a potentially lifesaving call to our suicide prevention helpline.

Story

I don’t JUST want to raise money for CALM, I also want more people who struggle with suicidal thoughts to become more aware of this charity.

Knowing the right people to reach out to in a crisis is critical and life saving and I personally have found them helpful in my own dark spells. I hadn’t even heard of them until last year despite depressive episodes beginning in my early teens. Had I have heard of them before, I would have reached out to them sooner

This is the one I really want to focus on in my fundraiser. Even if I don’t have much luck raising any money, in the very least, I want to get CALM, The Campaign Against Living Miserably to be the charity people think of if they are battling with suicidal thoughts. Even if it’s just one person

It’s one life I can point in the right direction
