Why I do it
Tuesday 26th Mar 2024There are a few reasons that The Distinguished Gentlemen's Ride is so important to me, the first is that I've lost a few friends to mental illness. My closest friend, when I was younger, took his life at 18, another two weeks out from his wedding. Both still play heavily on my mind, I always ask myself could I have done something more, could I have listened, what could I have done differently.
The Distinguished Gentlemen's Ride is all about raising donations to support those who support those who suffer from mental health issues, sometimes in silence.
The cause also supports prostate cancer research, I am lucky enough to have a few close friends alive today due to the support they received.
I'm Riding for Men's Health in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride
Saturday 23rd Mar 2024 On Sunday the 19th of May 2024, I'm riding in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride with fellow men and women across the globe to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health on behalf of Movember. Men die on average 6 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. The number of men that are suffering is growing, and we need to do something about that. So, before I press my tweed and polish my boots, I'm asking you to join me in raising funds and awareness for these causes by donating what you can for this meaningful cause and to help the men we love, live happier and healthier lives.My Sponsors
