About Our Challenge

This June, we're taking on The Push-Up Challenge and completing a heap of push-ups between 4-26 June, 2025 to raise funds and awareness for mental health.

Mental health is a topic that i feel is extremely important. poor mental health is something that everyone suffers from every now and again, some more than others but regardless it’s something we all share and can all relate to, and yet a lot of us struggle to communicate about it. I lost my best friend this year to suicide. i miss him more and more every single day. now knowing the kind of pain he was in and the pain that as a result of poor mental health has left his family and people who loved him is something i don’t wish anyone ever had to experience. i’ll be doing this challenge to honour my mate and to raise some awareness about mental health. in today’s society it’s so easy to become overwhelmed and stressed out, feeling like you’re behind so many others your age when really you’re just on your own path. everything happens for a reason. i find that having a positive and beneficial outlet for my emotions helps drastically. for example going to the gym, boxing, seeing my mates or going camping is always a complete mental reset for me. it allows me time away from my phone and from the weight of day to day life, and i always feel a million times better afterwards. go do something that helps you let out whatever your feeling, and then not leave you regretting what it is you’ve done afterwards (don’t just go and drink or do something stupid). This is why these reps for riley will be almost like killing 2 birds with one stone for myself, i can not only raise awareness for a cause that i admire, but i’ll also be helping myself mentally in the process. 

So please donate to this cause and help prevent more people from feeling like there’s no other options.
