My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Mental health and suicide prevention

It's coming up to 3 years since one of my best mates, Adam, committed suicide, something that I still haven't come to terms with in all honesty. Like a lot of male suicides, none of us had any idea of his struggles, especially after the week we all had together at Bestival around a month prior to his death. It is my biggest regret in life not knowing or being able to help him through his worst times, which is why I and our group try our best to raise as much money as we can during Movember in the hope that it can help others in similar situations.

60 men die every hour from suicide globally, which is why I have committed to cycling 60km a day for the duration of Movember along with attempting to grow a moustache of some sort. I understand everyone is struggling financially during this pandemic and appreciate every donation made to help raise money for the cause. Suicide is still the biggest killer of men under 45 in the UK and with the constant cuts in mental health budgets since 2010 it makes fundraisers like Movember all the more important.

Thanks for your donation, and wish my legs luck! (You can follow my progress below via Strava).


Mae hi'n agos at 3 mlynedd ers i un o fy ffrindiau gorau, Adam, cymryd ei fywyd, rhywbeth sydd yn dal i fy nhrafferthu o hyd. Fel nifer fawr o hunanladdiadau gan ddynion, doedd gan neb unrhyw syniad o'i problemau yn enwedig ar ôl gwario wythnos yn Bestival fel grwp tua mis cyn ei farwolaeth. Marwolaeth Adam yw'r peth dwy'n difaru mwyaf o beidio ac adnabod neu gallu ei helpu trwy eu drafferthion anoddach. Dyma pam dwi ac ein grwp o ffrindiau yn ceisio i godi cymaint o arian a sy'n bosib yn ystod Movember gyda'r gobaith o helpu rhywyn sydd yn sefyllfa tebyg.

Mae 60 o ddynion yn hunanladd pob awr, sydd wedi fy ysbridoli i seiclo 60km pob diwrnod yn ystod Movember wrth ceisio tyfy mwstash o rhyw fath. Dwi'n deall bod pawb yn dioddef yn ariannol yn ystod y pandemig ac yn ddiolchgar i unrhyw noddiadau i'r achos. Hunanladdiad yw llofrudd mwyaf dynion o dan 45 yn y DU a gyda'r toriadau cyson ers 2010 yng nghyllideb iechyd meddwl, mae pwysigrwydd digwyddiadau codi arian fel Movember o hyd i godi.

Diolch am eich noddiad, a dymunwch pob lwc i fy nghoesau! (Gallwch dilyn y brocess isod trwy Strava).
