so everyone, I’m riding to Scotland - John Ogroats for men’s mental health on the 24th November 2025. Recently my dad has gone through treatment for bowl cancer in which time his physical and mental health just seem to have dipped. Due to the nature of my employment I finish work for winter at the end of October so I came up with this idea of the bike ride to just do something good & keep the conversation present and happening regarding men’s mental health because no matter what or who we are, we all suffer or have suffered and the stigma surrounding it needs to be broken. Seeing the amounts of people who relate to myself insures me to get this done even more and reading and listening to other stories as well. If I can make just a tiny bit of difference to one person then I’m beyond happy. This is probably going to be one of the hardest things I’ve ever done in life but just know I’m more motivated than ever to get this done for all the people who struggle and have struggled to show that when times get tough and you feel like quitting, you’re stronger than you’ll ever really believe. I want to make a difference so I’m going to try to do so.

I just want to say end this by saying I can’t express the gratitude for anyone who reads and donates, but sharing the page and spreading the word far and wide is just as good, believe me! Mental health matters, men’s mental health matters!
