🧗♂️ Hiking for Hope: Climbing Snowdon for Men’s Mental Health 🧠
This weekend, I’ll be taking on Snowdon to raise awareness and funds for men’s mental health and su***de prevention. I’m reaching out to ask for your support with two powerful ways you can help:
1. Donate: I’ve set up a fundraising page—every little bit helps.
2. Sponsor me: I’m also on the lookout for sponsors to help cover trip expenses and maximise the impact of every donation.

• Why this matters
Men account for 3 out of every 4 su***des in the UK—that’s around 75% of all cases .
In 2023, 6,069 su***des were registered in England & Wales, and 5,656 of them were men, with a rate of 17.1 per 100,000 males compared to 5.6 per 100,000 females .
Su***de is the leading cause of death for men under 50 in the UK .
• The challenges
Men are less likely to seek help, and only around 36% of referrals to NHS talking therapies are for men .
Societal pressures—like the idea that “men should be tough”—can make it hard to open up .
• The impact of your support
Every donation will help who provide essential peer support, therapy, crisis lines, and more .
By donating or sponsoring this climb, you’re helping break the stigma and give men real help and hope.
Please support if you can—every penny and every sponsor push makes a real difference. 💙
