Manlikestubbs Collective raising awareness and now partnering with Co-alc Alliance

Oli was just 27.

A daddy. A son. A stepson. A brother. A grandson. A cousin. A nephew. A friend.

He took his own life in late January 2026 after experiencing a cocaethylene-linked mental health crisis – a devastating reaction linked to mixing alcohol and co***ne which occurs during the comedown.

Oli is loved, missed and remembered every day. His loss has devastated families, friends, colleagues and communities across the UK and Europe.

His story is why ManLikeStubbs Collective exists.

We are building a community in Oli’s memory to help prevent other families from experiencing the pain we now live with.

We will:

• Deliver workshops in schools, colleges, universities, workplaces and community settings about the dangers and su***de risks of mixing alcohol and co***ne.

• Support and signpost children and young people bereaved by parental su***de.

• Campaign for su***des involving alcohol and co***ne to be properly identified, categorised and recorded.

• Campaign for recognition and research into cocaethylene-linked mental health crises and su***de.

• Support parents, carers, schools and professionals helping young people affected by su***de.

Oli’s life mattered, as did many others who have left this world in the same way.

His tragic story, and many more like it can help save others.

ManLikeStubbs Collective – in memory of our wonderful Oli. Forever 27 💜

This article discusses , ADHD , rejection sensitive dysphoria, addiction and su***de risk

Henry is in the Daily Mirror today, page 20.

Thank you to Dan Warburton for talk to me and for the care he took. I talked about what we didn't know. I never knew about rejection sensitive dysphoria, which so many people with ADHD live with. I didn't know young people with ADHD are more likely to die by su***de, or that ADHD medication is linked to a lower risk. We weren't equipped to support him properly, and I don't want any other family to be in that place.

If lads knew what to say when a mate said "I'm thinking of killing myself", it could save lives. That's what our peer mentor training is about. We work with the ADHD Coaching Agency because coaching gives young people with ADHD someone in their corner: help to understand how their brain works, to plan, to manage big feelings and to believe in themselves. It’s the support we wish Henry had had, and through the Foundation it’s free.

The article also mentions A Night of Musical Theatre and Swing, hosted by the ADHD Coaching Agency in memory of Henry, on Saturday 14 November at 7pm at The Haven Centre, Crawley. Tickets: adhdcoachingagency.com/fundraiser

World Mental Health Day - 10 October

This year's theme is "Lived experiences heard: real voices, real change."

Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is listen. Taking the time to check in with someone, have a conversation, or simply let them know they're not alone can make a real difference.

Mental health matters to all of us.

If you're struggling, please remember that support is available.
