My motivation

GLOBALLY, ON AVERAGE, 1 MAN DIES BY SUICIDE EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY DAY.

On 24th November 2024, I joined a team kayaking a marathon, 26.2miles from Loch Tay to Dunkeld.

In 2022, I deadlifted 100kg every minute for one hour, for every male who takes their own life in this hour.

In 2023, I attempted to deadlift 80kg, 60 times an hour, for 12 hours. A total of 720 reps and nearly 60 tonnes. Falling short of my goal but succeeding at raising awareness and completing 500 reps!

I will also be encouraging and supporting fundraising efforts by individuals and teams in University of Strathclyde Movember Challenge and Strathclyde Canoe Club.

Movember is the leading charity changing the face of men's health, and this Movember I'm joining them. Together we can make a difference for men's health – in prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention. Help me stop men dying too young.

As we wrap up the year, I want to say a HUGE thank you to our Students Mo's.

Your energy, commitment, and hard work helped raise an incredible £1.94 million for men’s health — something you should all be seriously proud of!

I’ve put together a short video as a small way of saying thanks and celebrating what you’ve achieved. After a busy few months making a real impact, I hope you get the chance to properly switch off, recharge, and enjoy some well-earned time off.

Wishing you a well-deserved and relaxing festive season, however you’re spending it!
