Chasing The Stigma It's time to start looking after your mental health. Chasing the Stigma is an award-winning national mental health charity.

We exist to normalise and humanise conversation about mental health through the provision of pioneering training services, awareness-raising campaigns and lobbying activities, whilst also ensuring that through the Hub of Hope every person in the UK has the means to find timely support for their mental wellbeing, whenever and wherever they need it.

For the fifth year running, The Royal Foundation of The Prince and Princess of Wales hosted a Carol Service at Westminster Abbey, bringing together people from across the UK to thank those who go above and beyond to support their communities.

We were incredibly honoured to be invited this year in recognition of our work supporting the launch of the National Su***de Prevention Network. To see this work acknowledged in such a historic and meaningful space was both humbling and powerful.

The service took place on Friday 5 December 2025 and featured readings and performances from Dan Smith of Bastille, Kate Winslet and Chiwetel Ejiofor.

Moments like this remind us why visibility, collaboration and compassion matter, and why we keep pushing for better mental health support for everyone. 💙

What a year, Andrew! 🏃‍♂️

As 2025 comes to a close, we at Chasing the Stigma are incredibly proud to celebrate Andrew’s phenomenal 12 Half Marathons in 12 Months challenge, a journey of resilience, recovery, and unwavering determination in support of our work and the Hub of Hope. 🫶

In Andrew’s own words:

“What a year! From the first wet and freezing cold run in January when I was questioning my decisions, to heatwave runs where I thought I wouldn’t get to the end… I finally got to finish it off today dressed like Santa, running along with a huge smile on my face. I never expected to improve on my PB five times this year, so that’s an added bonus too!”

Every mile Andrew has run has helped ensure that hundreds of thousands of people can continue to find mental health support through the Hub of Hope.

And now, after a year of grit, determination, and countless finish lines, Andrew is just £138 away from reaching his incredible £2000 fundraising goal.

➡️ If you can, please help him cross this final finish line: https://www.justgiving.com/page/andrew-coe-1734893387578?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL

To everyone who has supported Andrew throughout the year, Andrew and all of us at Chasing the Stigma are deeply grateful. Your kindness is making a real and lasting difference across the UK. 💛

Now… time for Andrew’s legs to finally rest! 🏃‍♂️

Let’s help him hit that target!

So many of us can sadly identify with Roman Kemp, and it is lovely to know that in that moment he had people to reach out to. But that isn’t always the case.

We're here to remind you that the Hub of Hope is here to connect you to support whenever and wherever you need it.

We realise sometimes things in the media can be triggering, but they can also start a conversation and remove the stigma attached to mental health. The more we talk about it, the more it can make others realise that it is ok to talk.

What a week!

Our CEO & Founder Jake Mills and Director of Business & Operational Development Chris Clarke headed to London for two important events shining a light on su***de prevention, mental health, and the wellbeing of men in society. 🫶

Jake attended the APPG on Su***de & Self-harm Prevention AGM, followed by a reception at 10 Downing Street for International Men’s Day, highlighting men’s mental health, wellbeing and the role of government in driving change Chris attended the launch of the new British Standard on Su***de and the Workplace at the Palace of Westminster.

Some words from Chris:

“Here at Chasing the Stigma we are incredibly proud to have been involved in the committees that helped shape the standard and are hopeful it will go a long way to reducing the devastating impact of su***de in the years ahead.” 💬

Thank you to all the speakers and partners who made these events possible, we welcome any opportunity to speak why mental health support must be inclusive and accessible wherever and whenever people need it. 💙
