Dan Sarginson
The Mental Health Warrior
I am an Ex professional rugby league player.. I retired early to pursue a career I personally felt had more meaning for me in public speaking around my journey with mental health and wellbeing. After losing my little brother in 2018 who was suffering with mental health, I immediately knew that’s where my passion lied and took a leap out of the sport I’d played from the age of 4 years old into the unknown.
This will be my first real challenge since my playing days as I felt I needed to rest my competitive side and understand who I was underneath my achievements. I am finally at a stage where I am once again excited to push my body to its limits.. This time, unlike my sporting career which was driven by a need for external validation, this will be for myself and the team!!! Not to men- tion of course the amazing mental health causes we all stand for, raising money to help support those who need it
