Our Motivation

There is a mental health crisis.

Our brothers, fathers, cousins, uncles and pals are taking their lives at an alarming rate and account for more than 3 out of 4 suicides. In the UK in 2020 alone we lost 4,646 men to suicide.

This year on 14th November, to raise awareness and funds for projects that aim to bring those numbers down, Rob Sackett and I (+ Brucey) will be running the length of the Northern tube line and back, 46.46 miles.

If you’ve spent time on the tube in London, you might have heard of “persons under a train”. It’s a haunting collection of words to hear.

Suicide attempts on the underground are most common on the Northern Line, and thankfully have decreased in recent years down to a few interventions, ‘lethal-means reduction’ being one. And you’ll see if you travel on the new Lizzie line that TfL now have platform screen doors which reduces the odds that a suicide attempter will use highly lethal means.

Platform screen doors might stop people jumping in front of trains, they won’t however solve a mental health crisis, nor will they ultimately stop people living miserable and unfulfilling lives. There must be a collective effort to improve mental health as a species, we can all play a part in that. I want to do that through raising awareness and having conversations with as many people as I can.

Together, we have the power to change the world.

Great idea to highlight the cause, but that is a lot of miles. Best of luck gentlemen!
