Story
I’m just a bloke and a family man with a pair of legs who wants to to raise awareness for mental health in the communities of Cornwall. I’m not known as athletic or sporty in any shape or form by those that know me!
Though I have for the last 25 years experienced my own mental health issues. Talking about how you feel can be difficult and some of us can, however the majority seem to find this very overwhelming. In the last year alone, just in the community I live in (Camborne/Redruth), I have heard or known of at least 12 people taking their own lives! This walk is an opportunity to touch communities and people’s lives, to restate the importance of looking out for each other and to see people beyond our surfaces. Life in its simplicity is about people, are we really always aware of each other?
Please support Portheden and myself in May on the walk whether that be a donation, joining me on my walk or a bit of banter on social media. It can seem so little though mean so much.
Thanks.
