My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Mental health and suicide prevention
Men's health

In today’s world, mental health remains a critical yet often overlooked aspect of overall well-being, especially among men. Too frequently, societal expectations and stigmas prevent open discussions about mental health challenges, leaving many to struggle in silence.

Navigating mental health challenges, particularly anxiety, has been a significant part of my journey. For years, I struggled with overwhelming feelings of worry and unease, which often felt isolating. It wasn’t until I found help that I began to understand the importance of mental health services. Therapy and support groups provided me with invaluable tools to manage my anxiety, helping me to reframe my thoughts and develop coping strategies.

As I progressed in my journey, I realized how vital it is to give back. This November, I’m committed to raising awareness and funds for mental health initiatives and to spotlight mental health well-being and encourage conversations that break down stigma.

By participating in Movember, I hope to inspire others to seek help and highlight the resources available. Every contribution matters, and I aim to use my experience to support those who may feel as lost as I once did. Together, we can foster a community that prioritizes mental health, showing that it’s okay to seek help and that no one has to face their struggles alone.

Through this fundraising initiative “ Tashes , pints and the craic” , I aim to raise both funds and awareness for men's mental health programs that provide essential resources, support, and advocacy. By sharing my journey and experiences, I hope to inspire others to break the silence and foster a community where men can feel safe to seek help. Together, we can challenge the stigma and create a lasting impact on the lives of those affected by mental health issues.

Join me in this vital cause as we work towards a future where every man has access to the support he needs.

Thank you
Ben
