Lately, I've been feeling a bit of self-doubt, you know, when you start overthinking and get stuck questioning yourself. But then I remembered that I don’t need to have all the answers, and I should be proud of what I'm trying to achieve, even if it feels a little scary. So, I decided to start small—just messaged my local MP to see if she could lend a hand.

I’ll keep you posted if I hear back ✍️

For one of the biggest killers of men under 50, we have no basic training.

No protocol. No legal requirement. Nothing.
That’s a missing barrier, and it’s costing lives.

What I’m campaigning for is simple:
🧠 A short, annual mind-safety training under Health & Safety
🔥 Just like fire safety or first aid, practical, repeatable, and life-saving.

Thirty minutes, once a year.
Teach what happens in the brain during a crisis.
Show people how to respond, for themselves or someone else.

Because if we can prepare for a fire that might never happen…
we can prepare for a mental health crisis too.

Thank you to everyone who’s helped me get to this point. I’m still learning, still healing, still speaking up.
