My motivation

"Kia Ora" as dad would say when he answered the phone.

We are Sam and Angus Crampton, proud sons of Philip Crampton

Movember means more to our family than most, as 15 months ago we lost Dad to Depression.

Mental health challenges don't discriminate and can appear out of nowhere. We never thought this would happen to our family and most wouldn't. That's not to say that any family deserves such a tragedy, we just want to reinforce how quickly things can change with the people you love.

Dad was happily retired, soon to be a grandfather for the 2nd and 3rd time, had built his dream retirement home, had a supportive family, a large friend group, and a range of hobbies, passions, and goals to see out the rest of his days.

On top of this, he was the happiest and most positive person we knew with a true zest for life and a range of quotes like "nobody ruins my day" and "a hug a day keeps the trouble away"

NZ has a mental health crisis and we've seen first-hand how under supported and resourced mental health is in our country.
Dad wasn't suffering in silence, he was begging for help, but as we've found out, you have to make an attempt to take your life to receive clinical support and even then, the support isn't long term.

He passed away the day after the people who were supposed to be treating and caring for him, deemed him stable enough to continue his recovery at home, something our family disagreed with.

This November to honour dad and the other 616 people we lost to suicide in NZ last year, we are going to grow a mo and commit to 617 minutes a week each of outdoor exercise, running, walking, golfing, cricket and more.
Outdoor exercise has really helped us through our ongoing grieving process and has both physical and mental health benefits for everyone.

Our goal is to raise $617 each for Movember.
If you are able to contribute to this great cause, please do, and thank you for your support.

If not, that's fine too.
Instead, we'd ask that you reach out to a family member, friend, colleague, or just anyone in your life to check in with them to see how they are (really) going.

Invite them for a meal, go for a walk, have a beer, watch some sport, go to a movie or concert, laugh about old times, all things we wish we could still do with Father Kunz.

Many thanks, Sam & Angus
