Welcome to our fundraising page – and thank you for stopping by!

We’re a team from FutureBAM and Forces@BAM, gearing up to tackle the Yorkshire Three Peaks on Thursday, 19th June 2025. While we’re looking forward to the physical challenge and stunning scenery, our real motivation is to raise awareness and funds for Samaritans — a charity that offers a lifeline to people in emotional distress.

Samaritans are there 24/7 for anyone who needs someone to listen — no judgement, no pressure. Whether it’s through a phone call, email, or face-to-face support, their volunteers help people find hope when they feel most alone.

Why am I doing this?

I’m taking on the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge in memory of my beloved cousin, Sam, who tragically lost his life to suicide in February at just 15 years old.

Sam was the sweetest, smartest, most loving boy — full of potential and kindness. He had a beautiful future ahead of him, and his loss has left a void in the lives of everyone who knew and loved him.

I’m raising money for Samaritans, a charity that offers life-saving support to people struggling with their mental health. My hope is that the funds raised through this challenge can help others find light in their darkest moments — and prevent another family from experiencing the pain we are going through.

Please donate if you can, share if you’re able, and help spread awareness. Every step I take on those peaks is for Sam — and for everyone who needs a little hope.

Thank you 💚
