Apoya a Ben

Hi, I’m Ben

I’m cycling around the world, raising money and awareness for mental health, in memory of my friend Cameron who sadly passed away after struggling with his own.

I’m not a cyclist, I’m very unfit and don’t know anything about bicycles - and I still don’t know how to fix a puncture…eeekk

But I hope I can inspire others to get outside, exercise, clear their head and look after their mental health. And also encourage people to speak up when they’re struggling, and get people to check in with their loved ones.

CALM - the Campaign Against Living Miserably - is a suicide prevention charity helping people find support when they’re struggling and challenging the attitudes and stigma that can stop people from talking about how they’re feeling.

They provide tools and resources to help people find the support they need, including their life-saving helpline for people who can’t see a way forward, people who have lost someone to suicide, or anyone worried about a friend or loved one.

The money raised through this challenge can help CALM continue providing that support. £12.20 is enough to fund one potentially life-saving call.

If you’d like to support them please consider donating here: https://www.justgiving.com/page/thekingontheroad

And If you’d like to support me personally, any contributions go towards coffee, energy bars and sometimes a warm bed for the night.

This trip has been completely self-funded, and I appreciate any support I can get to keep me pushing east!

Thanks so much for being part of this journey.

Ben:)
