The Medicine Ball Challenge

SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR THOSE CARRYING THE BURDEN OF MENTAL HEALTH CHALLENGES.

Created by a serving soldier and former officer who have seen their families and friends struggle with mental health, the Medicine Ball Challenge is about starting conversations – encouraging people to speak freely about mental health while undertaking the 7-day challenge. Throughout the challenge, the difficulties of carrying the medicine ball become a powerful physical, visual and tangible representation of the invisible burden of mental health that so many people face.

Sponsorship raised will help two charities – ABF The Soldiers’ Charity and Combat Stress – which provide support to those with mental health issues.

It certainly became a physical, visual and tangible representation of the invisible burden of mental health so many of us can experience.”
