Liam Baker is the founder and Managing Director of Together We Lift, a not-for-profit movement using strength training to start honest conversations around mental health.
After experiencing his own mental health crisis in 2021, Liam found that opening up, getting support and rebuilding his confidence through fitness changed the direction of his life. What started as one community lifting event in 2022 has grown into Together We Lift, a national series of inclusive strength-based events designed to help people talk, connect and realise they are not alone.
Through Together We Lift, Liam brings people together around one simple message: when the weight feels too heavy to carry alone, we lift together. His events use accessible strength challenges, including Tandem deadlift, to demonstrate the power of Communication & Trust.
Liam has raised over £18,000 for mental health support through these events and continues to work closely with localised mental health charities.
