Story


I decided I wanted a challenge in 2023 and one that would also hopefully make a difference to other peoples lives. Suicide is something that many of us have been affected by and is something that I believe, with more awareness and access to help, can be reduced. This is why I have chosen 'Team Grassroots.'  I hope you feel that sponsoring me will help push me in the coming months to train hard and complete the challenge of a gruelling 26 miles.... bearing in mind I have only given myself 3 months to prepare! Every penny counts and whatever you can donate will be much appreciated. 


Team Grassroots are lifesavers.When someone has thoughts of suicide, connecting with others can make all the difference. But reaching out can feel impossible, especially for men. Too many people go through this pain alone and without support.Together, we can fight dangerous stigma that stops people talking about suicide. Together, we can learn to recognise and support those at risk, and connect them with a network of lifesaving services. Together, we can prevent suicide.Team Grassroots make this possible. Every step along their journey, every penny they raise, helps us prevent suicide together through our lifesaving services.
