Story

Thank you for visiting my page. Many of you know that Wes took his own life in 2009, and it has had a big impact on me. I want to raise as much awareness as I can about the work Papyrus do, and I want to try and take away the stigma surrounding depression and suicide and make it less of a taboo subject. If the money I raise for Papyrus can help save at least one person then it will be worth the effort.

Over the last 5 years I have undertaken various runs to raise money for Papyrus, and I am hoping to continue until I have raised £2000. Updates are below.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and please give generously

Helen,

RIP Wes x
