Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:00:33]:
Hello. Welcome to another episode of the Keith Blakemore Noble radio Show. I’ve got a very inspiring young lady with us in today’s episode. She has created something called come together for calm. Now, come to a come Together For Calm was founded in 2021 by my guest Becca Innis, and it was founded to mark the first anniversary of losing someone to suicide. In the two years since, they have raised over 12,000 pounds and funded over 1500 life saving calls with mental health charity Calm through a range of fundraising activities. Today we are going to be chatting with the founder of come together for calm, Becca Innis. We’re going to explore why she started fundraising, what the community’s up to, what’s to come in the future, and we’ll be finding out a little bit more about Becca herself. Here’s my guest, Becca Innis. Hello, Becca. How are you doing?
Becca Innes [00:01:33]:
I’m good, thanks.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:01:36]:
Thank you so much for joining us. Thanks for coming along. So we’ve heard the bio, but who is Becca? Who is Becca?
Becca Innes [00:01:46]:
So I’m a small business owner. I have run a printing business for the last nine years. I set that up because I wanted to be able to work from home. I set it up when I was still studying, so I have a science degree that I’ve never used, but I like learning, so it was good fun. But part of the reason I work from home is because, as those that know me will know, I have health issues, including Crohn’s disease, which is a bit of a battle at the moment. And I have issues with my leg. So for me, working from home was just the easiest option. And I like to use my business for good. It’s not about how much money I can make for me. It’s about how many people I can help, not just with the charity, but with all the other things that I run for other small business owners, too.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:02:36]:
Got it. Nice. And we’ll talk about the charity, particularly in a little while, because there’s some amazing work that you do there with them. But before we do that, let’s love to explore your journey. So take us through where you came from and you say you’ve got a degree. Was it that you said, I do.
Becca Innes [00:03:00]:
I’ve got a health sciences degree, which a lot of people don’t know.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:03:04]:
Tell us about all that. How did that come into being?
Becca Innes [00:03:08]:
So I originally went to Uni in Edinburgh when I well, I had a gap year and had a knee operation after school and then went to Edinburgh University to do biomedical sciences. But unfortunately, the knee operation didn’t hold. I ended up going back home to McDuff and decided, you know what? I want to finish this degree. I didn’t necessarily want to use it, but I wanted to finish it because I’d started it, so I applied to finish it with the Open University.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:03:41]:
Right. And so how long did it take to do the Ou degree?
Becca Innes [00:03:47]:
So I did two years at Edinburgh, had a break, and then went back Open Uni for two years. So it was just the four years, just with a bit of a break in the middle.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:03:58]:
Got it. What attracted you to that degree?
Becca Innes [00:04:02]:
I’ll be honest, I left school, didn’t really want to go to uni. My parents wanted me to go to uni, and my guidance counselor, who was also a friend dad at the time, said, do you know what? You’re really good at science. Maybe that’s what you should do. So I did. I do enjoy science. It’s still something I’m interested in. And to be honest, the degree does help because when you’ve got all this health stuff thrown at you, the degree has helped me make a bit of sense out of some of it.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:04:32]:
Got it. Yeah, that makes sense. But unfortunately, you needed a knee operation which didn’t go quite the way you’d hoped, and that kind of retired you from full time university, but you still went ahead and did it through the Ou.
Becca Innes [00:04:50]:
Yeah, I actually had a second knee operation, and that’s when I started with the Ou. So I’ve had three now, which for someone that’s only 33, that seems like quite a lot.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:04:59]:
Does seem a bit greedy having three knee operations. Dear me. How are things now in that respect? Are they improved or is it as good as it’s going to get?
Becca Innes [00:05:10]:
It’s as good as it’s going to get. I still have some mobility issues. I still have nerve pain, but it’s stable. I don’t get the dislocations now. So the third operation that I had, I actually paid for it privately, and that is the best money I’ve ever spent.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:05:27]:
Got it. Okay. Right. Got you. University. Obviously you get a degree out of that, but often people say that the degree is perhaps the least important thing that they get from university. It’s all the experience that they go there. What’s your mean? Apart from the degree, what did you get out of going to university? How do you think that’s helped shape the Becca we see before us today?
Becca Innes [00:05:57]:
I think when I was in Edinburgh, I learned that I don’t like living in Edinburgh. For one, that was the first thing I learned. But also because of my situation, I ended up doing double the amount of courses in my second year because I missed the exams in my first year because of the knee issues, which did teach me how to manage my time really well, how to juggle a lot of different things, which is definitely something that I use a lot. And I think finishing the degree with Open University set me up well to be self employed, because it taught me that self discipline that you need.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:06:36]:
Got it. Yeah. So even though you don’t necessarily use the degree itself, a lot of what you learned along the way, a lot of what enables you to get the degree has proved to be incredibly useful in everything else that you do.
Becca Innes [00:06:50]:
Yeah.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:06:51]:
Like it. Like it. So you got your degree from Ou. What happened, what happened next? Where did life take you?
Becca Innes [00:07:01]:
So that’s kind of when I fell into printing, and I say fell into printing, it started when I was finishing my degree because I didn’t like the prices to print courses from the Open University. They were ridiculous. So I bought a printer, I used that to print and bind my final project. But other friends started asking me, can you do that for me? So I kind of started as a print on demand service while I was at uni. I don’t do so much of that now because the people that I know has changed. So the business has kind of changed with that.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:07:37]:
Right, okay, nice. And how long did you build that business up for?
Becca Innes [00:07:43]:
So it was nine years old in April, since I took my first order.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:07:50]:
Pretty good going. Pretty good. Going nine years. And as you say, you’re not focusing on that quite so much. Is that business still there? Is it going or do you think it’s going?
Becca Innes [00:07:59]:
I still do some of that just through referral, but it’s not something that I do a lot of. I’ve kind of moved on into more business stationery and such like because the people I’m surrounded by now are small business owners and it evolved by people saying, can you do this for me? Can you do that for me?
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:08:21]:
Which the answer is invariably, yes, absolutely.
Becca Innes [00:08:24]:
If it’s on paper, yes, I can do it. Unless it’s on tissue paper because we don’t do that anymore. Right.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:08:31]:
I can imagine printing on tissue paper must have been quite a hassle.
Becca Innes [00:08:35]:
Yeah, it is a lot of work that when I’m not feeling great, it’s.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:08:40]:
Not worth yeah, yeah, got it. So just for people who don’t know you, roughly, whereabouts in the country are you based?
Becca Innes [00:08:49]:
So I actually live in Aberdeen now. I’ve always lived in Scotland and I am in Aberdeen, which if you’d said to me as a teenager that I was going to live in Aberdeen, I’d have said to you, no, I’m not. But I met my partner, Peter, we’ve been together 15 years now and he works in the oil industry. So Aberdeen was the place that we ended up.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:09:13]:
Yeah, cool. And you run your business from yeah. Nice.
Becca Innes [00:09:20]:
Keeps us close to family in McDuff as well.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:09:22]:
Well, yes, that’s always nice. Always nice when you’re close enough to family that you can visit them, but not so close that you’re in each other’s pockets all the time, I guess.
Becca Innes [00:09:33]:
Yeah. Unlike my sister, who lives on the same street as my mom and my granny.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:09:37]:
Oh, good Lord.
Becca Innes [00:09:38]:
Makes it easy for me visiting though.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:09:40]:
Yeah, well get all three in one go.
Becca Innes [00:09:42]:
Yeah.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:09:45]:
That is true, that is true. Now, aside from the business, I know the other major thing that you focus on is coming together for calm. Tell us obviously, without going into too much detail, for obvious reasons, tell us a bit about how did this come about and what made you specifically want to go down the route of coming together for calm rather than any other approach?
Becca Innes [00:10:15]:
So in July 2020, we lost my cousin to suicide and the effect that that had on some of the other members of my family was huge. Although he was my cousin, he wasn’t someone that I was particularly close to, but my sister was very close to him and he thought the world of my granny like she was top of the invite list and such like. So I guess seeing the impact it had on my granny is what made me think, do you know what, I can’t forget about this. So when it came to the following year, I decided, do you know what, I want to do something positive to mark the first anniversary. And I got this idea in my head that I was going to do something every day in July, make a big thing out of it, try and raise some money. And in my head I thought, you know what, I’ll probably get a pity fiverr off someone and they’ll tell me to be quiet and that’ll be the end of it. But that really wasn’t what happened at all.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:11:19]:
So what did happen? Tell it, take us through it.
Becca Innes [00:11:22]:
What did you do the first year? Basically we ran an event every day that month, so we had things like murder mysteries, we had movie nights, we had quizzes, we had a twelve hour live stream that I think you actually spoke on, Keith.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:11:40]:
I remember it well.
Becca Innes [00:11:42]:
So we had all these things and it completely took over my life. It was crazy. I’d never been live before. And suddenly I was on Facebook lives all the time. But so many people got involved with it and it became so much bigger than I imagined. And by the end of the month, we’d raised over five grand. And I said, you know what? I’m not doing this again because I’m not able. It’s too much. Which didn’t happen.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:12:18]:
Yeah. How often do we say to ourselves, right, I’m never doing that again? And then a little while later, well, maybe it wasn’t quite so yeah. What spurred you to do it the second time, the second year? Was it from you? Was it others suggesting hey Becca, when are we doing how did it come about the second time?
Becca Innes [00:12:40]:
So there was a lot know, people that were involved saying when are we doing something again? And to begin with I completely resisted it and said I don’t think we are. But then after a few months passed, it became clear from talking to people that I maybe wasn’t that close to how much what we’d done had helped. So it had given them this opportunity to speak to others about their mental health. They felt it had made it more acceptable to be open about it. And at that point I thought, you know what, I can’t take this away from people. So last May we did two events every day and we moved it to May to make it a little bit easier on me because it didn’t coincide with anniversaries and such like, but also May’s Mental Health Awareness Month. So it felt like the right month to move it to.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:13:31]:
Got it. So having done one event per day for the whole of a month and deciding never again the next year, you do two events a day for a whole month. What sort of events were you doing?
Becca Innes [00:13:46]:
So it was kind of the same idea. We added in things like business workshops and such. Like the second year we had theme days, so we had things like a Star Wars day where we auctioned a droid that I made in Florida. That was definitely one of my favorite things that I’ve done, linked to the charity. And my sister actually got involved and she shaved her head for the charity in the second year. Now I wasn’t there. She actually did it in Tesco and Banff. My mom shaved her head and Granny was there. But unfortunately I was in hospital, so I missed out on that experience. But being in hospital didn’t stop me. I judged a talent show from a hospital bed.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:14:32]:
Judged a talent show from not many people can say they from a hospital bed. Yeah. Wow. How much did you raise that time round?
Becca Innes [00:14:46]:
So again, it was just over the 5000 pound mark.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:14:51]:
That is not bad. Especially as you’re in a hospital bed for a good chunk of it as well.
Becca Innes [00:14:57]:
Yes, and I will admit that probably overdoing. It is what landed me in the hospital bed. But I did not learn my lesson well.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:15:05]:
No. And we’ll see a very good demonstration of that in a couple of moments as we move to this year. But just before we do that. So you’re raising these funds. So you’ve basically set up a charity to raise the funds.
Becca Innes [00:15:20]:
Is that no, I haven’t set up my own charity. I did consider that, but I decided that I would support Cam, which stands for a Campaign Against Living Miserably, which is a mental health charity. And the reason I chose it is because I didn’t want a massive charity. I didn’t want this big faceless organization. I wanted a charity that actually cared about their fundraisers and can do. I speak to them quite regularly. I’ve got a contact there and if I ask them for help with something, they’re happy to do that. But also it’s changed now, so they support everyone. But at the time of me starting to fundraise, they predominantly focused on preventing male suicide, which for me, that was kind of the perfect choice.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:16:15]:
Got you. So they’re a smaller charity and how do they help people? What sorts of things do they do to help?
Becca Innes [00:16:24]:
So the main thing is that they have a helpline. And it was important to me that this helpline wasn’t just for the people that were struggling, it was also for the people around them. So family members that have lost someone to suicide or that have had someone attempt it, they can also ring up that helpline for support. As you know, people will have heard me, Chelsea, Claire, all of us saying that eight pounds is how much it costs for one of those phone calls. And that could save someone’s life.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:16:58]:
Right. Eight pounds to save one life. That is wow. Cool. So you say that they provide support both for people, both for the person going through that and also for those around them who are affected. What sort of support do they provide? How do they help?
Becca Innes [00:17:19]:
So they are able to advise you of different services that you can go to, but sometimes all they need to do is be someone at the end of the phone that you don’t know, because sometimes it’s easier to talk to someone you don’t know than it is to talk to someone you do. And I’m not someone that’s used it myself, but I know people that have and they found it very helpful. So that was also factored into my decision to support them.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:17:47]:
Got it. That makes sense. So where are calm based?
Becca Innes [00:17:53]:
So they are down in England, but they do cover the whole of the UK. They do a lot of things kind of down in the south of England, so, you’ll know, they get heavily involved with fundraising things around London, Brighton, that kind of area. But they are starting to put things up in Scotland. I got an email the other day that said, do you want to run the Edinburgh Marathon for us? Which I looked at and thought, maybe I’ll do that next year. And then I worked out how long it would take me at my average walking speed on crutches, and it would take me more than 24 hours. Maybe not.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:18:35]:
Well, you do see some people who do the London Marathon in, like, several days rather than hours. I remember there’s one guy did it in the full deep sea diving costume. It took him about a week to go round it’s.
Becca Innes [00:18:47]:
Crazy.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:18:48]:
Something. Yeah. Goodness me. Wow. Okay, so, yes, we’ve explored the ways in which you were fundraising for the previous two years. Yes. It’s safe to say you didn’t slow things down for this year. What craziness did you get up to this year and how did it come about?
Becca Innes [00:19:10]:
I have done things differently. Instead of having a full on month of something every day, I decided, you know what? I’m going to do a few smaller things throughout the year. So that was the idea. In my head. I was like, you know what? I don’t think we’ll raise as much money because when things are spread out, it is harder to keep up the momentum and all that. But then I decided that what I wanted to do as my personal fundraiser this year was climb a mountain. Now, there is a reason behind it, which a lot of people probably don’t know. Even the people that climbed that mountain with me didn’t know the reason at the time. They just looked at it like, well, she’s going to do it anyway, so we might as well get on board and support her. And in the end, there were four of us and a dog that went up Karen Gorm in May.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:20:06]:
You climbed Cairngorm?
Becca Innes [00:20:09]:
Yes, I did. On crutches. I realized, actually, this is not designed for people on crotches.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:20:17]:
No, for those who don’t know about Cairngorm. Okay. It’s not full rope and cramp on mountain climbing, but it’s not a walk in the park either. It is pretty rugged terrain.
Becca Innes [00:20:31]:
Yeah, it’s the highest mountain in the UK. And I think the best way to describe it is a giant, uneven staircase with massive gaps. And obviously I’ve had a lot of experience on crutches, so I felt completely safe the whole time. Edwino, that was with me, who we kind of ended up split by the end with my partner and Chelsea going ahead with the dog because she’d had enough, and if she’d laid down, none of us could carry her. And every time we came to a gap, I would just look at it and swing myself across to Edwina. She thought I was going to tip backwards and smash my head or something.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:21:15]:
Oh, Lord. Blimey. So you made it up the top without incidents?
Becca Innes [00:21:24]:
Hopefully without major incident, yeah. I was feeling pretty rough by the time we got to the top, so, I mean, by this point, I was starting to get a bit pearly anyway. I was already on steroids for crohn’s flare, and I made the decision to climb the mountain without really having anything to eat, which was fine. I was doing all right until I took a liquid glucose shot. And let me tell you, a sugar crash in the mist near the top of a mountain is not fun.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:21:56]:
No, definitely not. Definitely not. What time of year was this that you did it?
Becca Innes [00:22:04]:
It was in May.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:22:05]:
It was in May. So at least it’s reasonable weather the day before.
Becca Innes [00:22:11]:
Beautiful. The day we actually climbed the mountain, we only saw three other people on the mountain that day, and it wasn’t too bad to begin with, but by the time we got to the top, you could barely see in front of you. When we got to the top, there was no view. It was missed. We were completely soaked. But I guess at least you weren’t trying to climb a mountain in the snow and the weather.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:22:38]:
Or snow, yes, because the cairngorms, as much as we’re making slightly light of you climbing cairngorm with crutches, these are proper mountains, wilderness, and there are people who do die there when they climb in the winter, in the full snow and everything, so it’s not something to be undertaken.
Becca Innes [00:23:04]:
You know, once we got to the top, a lot of people didn’t really believe that we’d climbed. And for those that don’t know, cairngorms actually got the funicular railway, which we took that back down. I think Luna found that worse than the climb because she tried to hide behind my legs. Now, she’s a Bernice mountain dog. She’s a little bit big for that. But it was quite unsettling with the weather because it looked like the train was going to drop to nowhere, to the bottom. An older lady stopped me and she said, Excuse me, can you tell me where I buy tickets to get up on the train? And I said, I’ve got no idea. I climbed up and she looked at me and went, on those you winding me up. And I’m like, no, I really.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:23:52]:
Climbing, climbing, climbing any mountain on Crutches is yeah. I still say you were crazy. Completely crazy and insane. Thankfully, you didn’t do the mountain you were originally planning. What was the one you originally had wanted to climb?
Becca Innes [00:24:07]:
So originally I said Ben Nevis, and my other half was like, Becca, no. Usually when I say, Peter, we’re doing this, he’s just like, all right, then. But I think he realized that, you know what? You can’t just wing it and climb the highest mountain in the country, because we also would have had to climb down that one on Crutches is even more difficult.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:24:31]:
Yes. And even for fit people without Crutches, it’s quite an exhausting day to climb Ben Neveson back again. But still, Ken Gorman is still a big achievement.
Becca Innes [00:24:47]:
Yeah, there’s a lot of people that have said to me, I couldn’t do it. And I was like, do you know what? I think for me, it’s the mental side of it that meant I could do it, because in my head, I had to do it. There was no argument it was happening. And that kind of did keep me going. Although there were moments some people will have seen a photo of me sat on a rock refusing to move. And the donations coming in on the day that we were doing it really did help, because when you felt like, actually, I can’t go any further, someone donated money, you’re like, well, now I’ve got to go further.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:25:28]:
Yeah. So knowing now what you know, I’ll start that again. So, knowing what you know now about having gone through the experience, is there anything you would have done differently about your assault on Karen Gorn?
Becca Innes [00:25:43]:
I don’t actually think so. I mean, some people would have know training is a good idea, but actually, I think the fact that we didn’t really think about it, we just showed up and hoped for the best, I think that stopped the whole, oh, my God, I’m actually doing this. I had we had all planned to do training. Chelsea did go to the gym a little bit. My partner, Peter, he was with us. I mean, he was just strolling up there on, you know, he was out for a walk in the um but yeah, I think the way we did it, actually, there’s not much I would change about it.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:26:24]:
Nice. How much did that bring in for Calm?
Becca Innes [00:26:29]:
I’m not sure exactly how much the mountain climb brought in, but this year so far, with the mountain climb and little things that we’ve done, we have already got over two grand.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:26:40]:
That is pretty good going. Pretty good going. What do you got planned for the rest of the year?
Becca Innes [00:26:44]:
So, in November, we are having our first charity gala down in Manchester.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:26:50]:
Nice.
Becca Innes [00:26:53]:
Yeah, it’s a lot of work.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:26:57]:
Can you give us any sneak previews as to what’s going to be in the gala or is it still a tightly kept secret?
Becca Innes [00:27:04]:
It’s not a tightly kept secret. So we have close up magic and such like planned for the drinks reception. We are going to have a silent auction and a raffle and lots of fun games that raise some money on the night. The silent auction. We’ve already got some really good prizes, some football prizes also, which to me are just like whatever, but signed shirts. To some people, they’re quite sought after.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:27:36]:
Indeed.
Becca Innes [00:27:36]:
So and then I want to get a DJ and have a little bit of a party at the end of it. But there will be a serious side to it as well because we are there for a reason and I do want to kind of do a little bit of talking about the charity and why we’re there, because that’s what it’s all about.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:27:59]:
Yeah. So that’s in Manchester in October, did.
Becca Innes [00:28:02]:
You say the 18 november.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:28:04]:
November, sorry. In November. Nice. Obviously, you’re definitely not slowing down in your fundraising for Calms, which is a much needed charity, a much needed service. Have you given any thought to 2024 yet or are you just seeing how this year goes?
Becca Innes [00:28:23]:
I mean, other than the vague thought of Edinburgh marathon, I haven’t thought about next year yet. And to be honest, someone said to me, you can’t do that. And when someone says that to me, I get a little bit, well, now I’m going to at the same time, after the mountain, I ended in a hospital again, so maybe it’s time I’m a little bit more sensible, a little.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:28:46]:
Bit more so we won’t expect to see you at Everest Base camp anytime soon.
Becca Innes [00:28:50]:
Well, I did joke. So in one of the group chats that I’m in. I did say that next year I’m going on an expedition to Everest. And Claire Napper was like, you cannot climb Everest. I was like, I am. That’s where I’m going. It took a while for them to realize that what I actually meant was, I’m going to go back to Florida, I’m going to go to Disney World and I’m going to go on the expedition Everest roller coaster. I’m not actually planning Everest.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:29:17]:
Thank goodness for that.
Becca Innes [00:29:19]:
Think that might be the end of me.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:29:21]:
If I tried that just a little bit, just a little bit, we could talk about this for ages. I know there’s so much more that you’ve done, so much more that you’ve got planned. And I know the work that Calm do is incredibly useful, incredibly important for a lot of people. So every penny that you’re raising is helping. As you say, one call for eight pounds can help save a life.

It’s not just about the money. It’s about the awareness as well, because even this week, so everyone’s aware of my reasons for being fundraising, but the reasons for the people that support me the most maybe aren’t as well known. So they’ve all been sharing that and we’ve had quite a good response to it because it makes us more relatable and more approachable. So I quite often get messages from people and sometimes people that I don’t really know saying, actually reading that has helped. Or I’ve got a few that have sent in their story and said, can you post that anonymously? Because I don’t feel ready to share it myself yet.

Wow. Got it. Yeah. A lot more power to you. Long may all your support continue. For those who would like to find out a bit more, what’s the best way for them to find out more?
Becca Innes [00:30:45]:
So the easiest way to find out more is to go on to Facebook and visit the Come Together for Calm Facebook page that’s got links to everything else on it. There’s posts going out most days now. I can’t claim credit for know once a week. It’s, you know, we have some fantastic people helping, including Joe O’Neill, who has been scheduling all the posts about Calm about different mental illnesses. And you know what? There’s so many out there that even I didn’t really think about.
Keith Blakemore-Noble [00:31:19]:
Wow. So go to Facebook.com and go to the Come Together for Calm page and you’ll find out lots more information. Brilliant. You’ll also find the information in the show notes for this, the usual Place Keithbatewernoble.com slash show. Look for the one with Becca innis. You’ll find the link to that. You’ll also find a link to where you can buy tickets for the Fantastic gala in November. Becca, thank you so much. It’s been really interesting to hear all of the things that you’re doing to help with this very worthwhile charity. And good luck for all the things in the. Future as well.
