Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. 

I will be running the Swansea Half Marathon in memory of my brother in law Chris who we sadly lost to suicide in March. 

Since Chris' death we have learned just how big an issue suicide in young people truly is. Papyrus are a charity dedicated to helping young people and preventing suicide. Ultimately your money could save a life / lives and prevent other families going through what has happened to our family and to countless other family's. 

Suicide is still deemed a "taboo" subject and that is partly why people don't here about how big a problem it is. Papyrus are also working to change this. 

Thank you. Sam xx
