📚 24 Hours. One Chair. Countless Stories.

This year I’m taking on the Samaritans 24 Hour Challenge in what is probably the most “me” way possible… I’m going to read continuously for 24 hours.

No naps. No Netflix. No doomscrolling. Just me, a growing stack of books, an alarming quantity of coffee and the determination to keep turning pages for a full day and night.

As someone who has found comfort, escape and hope in books throughout my life, it felt like the perfect challenge. But whilst I’ll be spending 24 hours lost in stories, the Samaritans are there 24 hours a day for people facing some of the hardest moments in theirs. Samaritans were there for me when I needed someone to listen. This challenge is my way of helping make sure they're there for someone else, too. 

Every donation helps Samaritans answer more calls, offer more support and remind someone that they don’t ever have to face things alone.

If you’re able to sponsor me, I’d be incredibly grateful. Every euro makes a difference and I promise to think of your generosity somewhere around 3am when I’m wondering why I thought this was a sensible idea.

Thank you so much for your support 💚📚
