Our mission is to make young adult suicides a thing of the past in Aotearoa New Zealand.
International
The challenging issues relating to men’s mental health in New Zealand are worsening, as demonstrated by suicide rates at an all-time high. I have decided to use my brand, Beaver Holland, and my social media platforms, to increase awareness and raise money for ‘Movember 2024’.
Last year, I ran 333km around New Zealand for Spark That Chat. It was one of the best months of my life, travelling around New Zealand, running every day meeting influential people, and doing exciting activities. This year, I’m planning a campaign that will be even more of a step up. As well as running in and around several venues across the country throughout the month, on November 30th I will be running 100km around Christchurch, non-stop. I’m estimating it to be about 12 hours of running. This isn’t going to be easy for me, but for lots of people, neither is speaking out.
I have teamed up with Spark That Chat, MSFT Productions, and companies around the country that will feature on my top I wear during this journey. I will be selling t-shirts and hosting events.
Don’t be afraid to speak up. Talk to a mate about what’s on your mind. I’m sure they’re going through stuff, too, so you can relate. Never feel like a burden.
Make sure you follow Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, to stay tuned and join me in my journey across the country! #sparkthatchat
