Ashley Gilbank will start a coast-to-coast trip on skates in Newfoundland on June 4 in support of the Do It For Daron initiative. Gilbank plans to rollerblade 10,000 km across Canada to raise funds and awareness for youth mental health.

“I need to grab everyone’s attention in a big way; to get people talking about mental health,” Gilbank says. “If I can save just one life during this journey I know that it will have been worth every stride.”
