About My Challenge
This February I’m taking on The Push-Up Challenge — 2,000 push-ups in 23 days (5–27 February) — to raise awareness of mental health and fund vital funds for Samaritans.This challenge is something very close to my heart. Some time ago, this February, a truly wonderful young man who means a great deal to me made an attempt to take his own life. We were incredibly lucky — his story has a happy ending. But not everyone gets that chance, and that’s why this matters so deeply to me.
I truly believe that with more funding, more resources, and more open conversations, we can help more people feel supported, heard, and reminded of just how valued and loved they are — even in their darkest moments.
Every donation, no matter how small, helps Samaritans answer more calls, respond to more messages, and be there for people at crisis point or feeling suicidal. Sometimes, one conversation really can save a life.
Please support me as I push (literally!) for better mental health this February.
Thank you so much for your kindness, generosity, and support.
Supporting Samaritans
Samaritans is the charity that prevents suicide through the power of human connection. Connecting people in crisis with trained volunteers who will always listen. People calling for change with those who need to listen. People who’ve been there before, with those struggling now.
Samaritans make sure there’s always someone to listen if you’re in crisis or feeling suicidal. 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
By donating, you're helping someone with suicidal thoughts get help when they need it most.
