Its Mental Health Awareness Week – and given all the anxiety, stress and grief triggered by the Covid-19 pandemic we want to highlight the crucial work being done by the great team at CALM – our chosen charity for a second year.
The Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) is leading a movement against male suicide, the single biggest killer of men under 45 in the UK. CALM is an all-encompassing charity, and any money raised goes to help fund their life-changing, life-saving services:
- Providing frontline services for men, including a free and confidential helpline and webchat
- Promoting cultural and societal change, enabling conversations and encouraging everyone to speak out about their mental health experiences
- Campaigning for better understanding of the causes of suicide and its prevention.
REaD Group are proud to be supporting CALM in 2020 by taking part in events both big and small throughout the year. From Random Acts of Kindness Day, office baking extravaganzas, quiz nights and our more epic and gruelling sporting challenges – bring it on!
