Rowvember

Hi there and thankyou for making it this far!

Sticking my head back out the other side of a bit of a dark hole I fell in following The Block Nz I have decided to row 1km for every great NZer, who in the last year found it too hard to go on, and didn’t know how to get the help they needed. 607kms on a rowing machine plus an extra 2km for my two good (unrelated) friends who lost their brothers last month. Starting 19th October and finishing (hopefully before) the end of Movember.

I posted a very small summary of my own story up on social media and there has been an overwhelming amount of messages of support, people wanting to tell me their story, people needing help right now, and people who want to help.

I just can’t believe the response from this, so as requested by many, I have setup this givealittle for anyone that would like to - and is in the position to - give a little to split among charities that I believe are doing great things to help great NZers struggling with their own mental health.

Three charities on the list at this point:

I Am Hope/ Gumboot Friday

Mates in Construction
