We know this time of year can be crap, that’s why we’re asking you to join us in giving the middle finger to the winter blues while doing your bit against suicide. Whether you take a cold shower every day for a month, dye your hair in CALM colours, or come up with your own challenge – how you Stick It To Winter is up to you.

DJ Majestic drops new track for CALM
|
|
|
In an exclusive chat as part of #UnderTheSurface, a podcast series with Original Penguin, DJ and producer Majestic speaks openly about his own battle with depression and suicidal thoughts.
He’s also just dropped the brand new track, Invincible, a song about his struggles with mental wellbeing, in the hope that others will be inspired to talk. All of the proceeds from the song will be heading to CALM, so we can continue to support anyone having a difficult time.

Get up and running for CALM
|
|
|
Every mile you cover and every pound you raise, from 5k to sprinting all day – it all helps us to be there, no matter what. There are some great events - like the Brighton marathon - just around the corner, so step up to the challenge and sign up to run against living miserably.
Chips. The Pavilion. The beach. There’s loads of reasons to head to Brighton, but none as good as taking on 26 miles for CALM’s life-saving services. Running for CALM is proper-good. Join us in April - we promise great vibes and a cheer squad like no other.
