A huge thank you to Alexander Collins, who has very kindly chosen to donate 100% of the proceeds from downloads and sales of his single, Noise In Silence, to the Elliott Holmes Memorial Fund.

Alexander wrote the song about his own mental health and wanted to use it to help others. Having seen, through his own experiences, friends and his work with children in schools across Medway, just how many young people need support with their mental health and wellbeing, he felt motivated to make the song count.

He also spoke powerfully about the current crisis in men’s mental health, with too many men still not reaching out because of fear, judgement, stigma or the negative influence of online voices. These are conversations that matter, and raising awareness can make a real difference.

By supporting EHMF through this single, Alexander is helping us continue to provide fast, free, face-to-face counselling for young people who need support.

Thank you Alexander for your honesty, generosity and support. 💙
