Stand-up comedian, game-show host… and now very proud CALM Patron.
Introducing: Romesh Ranganathan
The baton has been passed by Pro Green. The hip hop chain has been handed over. We have a new CALM Patron. And he's here to save lives.
He’s been a CALM ambassador for a while now, smashing the silence around suicide through campaigns, podcasts and more. But it’s time to ramp things up a bit… to become CALM Patron.
You might be wondering why “that funny man off the TV” is stepping into these big shoes. Well, we thought we’d let Rom explain
“The truth is I’ve had many low points in my life which have hammered home just how important help is when you’re struggling. Back when I was a teenager a lot of stuff built up and I seriously thought about taking my own life.
1 in 5 of us will have suicidal thoughts like I did and I want to show that, no matter how bad things feel, there’s always a reason to stay - as well as raising as much money as I can to support as many people as possible.”
