Ryan Thomas steps up for CALM
Walking not one, but ten marathons in ten days to support our life-saving services, Ryan raised an incredible £161,976, breaking the CALM solo fundraising record and helping to answer over 20,000 helpline calls. A record breaker and a heel breaker, he pushed through despite the blisters and after his incredible effort, he’s certainly earned his place as CALM ambassador.

Featuring Suzi Ruffell and Ahir Shah - comedians talk conversation starters to make chat old hat again, pub etiquette and more stuff to help socialising go smoothly.

Jamie Laing, Russell Kane and Leon Mckenzie chat Body Image
Bodies - we’ve all got them, so why don’t we talk about them? We spoke to 2000 men about how their bodies made them feel and 48% said they struggled because of how they looked. We launched the #BodyTalks series supported by Instagram to get real about some of the body image stuff that gets us down.

Running Against Living Miserably
We run because we know running gives the biggest highs and can help us take the lows in our stride. Some walk half the way. Others are on their twentieth marathon. Whatever you do, you’re running against living miserably. For the endorphins. For coming out the other side. For the people we remember. We’ve got spaces for loads of events this year. So whether it’s the Brighton Marathon, the London Landmarks Half Marathon, or the London 10K pull on that neon orange vest and run with us.
