Tomorrow, 19th May, viewers on Twitch will be treated to a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe tournament featuring a cast of famous faces, all in the name of charity.

The event’s being hosted by CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), a charity working to fight against suicide, to coincide with Mental Health Awareness Week which takes place from 18th – 24th May. Celebrities will battle it out live for your entertainment, with viewers invited to donate to the charity.

You can watch the stream on CALM’s official Twitch channel from 7pm – 9pm BST on 19th May. The celebrity lineup includes Normal People stars Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones, rugby player Anthony Watson, footballer Tyrone Mings, musician Tom Grennan, comedians Iain Stirling, Jon Richardson and Seann Walsh, YouTuber Joe Sugg, fitness coach Bradley Simmonds, and reality TV star Josh Patterson.

Towards the end of last month, stars also took part in a Mario Tennis Aces charity event.

The Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) is leading a Movement Against ​S​uicide — offering life saving services, provoking national conversation and bringing people together to empower everyone to reject living miserably and stand together against suicide.

On average, 125 people in the UK take their own lives every week, with 75% of all suicide in the UK being male. CALM runs a free and anonymous helpline and webchat service from 5 pm to midnight 365 days a year.
