Hi, thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In 2017 I lost my brother to suicide, he was 23 and had struggled with psychosis and his mental health for a number of years.

In 2026 my friends and I are running the Bristol half marathon to fundraise for Hope Against Suicide, a registered charity based in Bristol. The current team is:

Jack McGhee, Molly Bradley, Stephen Pardoe, Zoe Ford, Anna Deere, Gavin Pownall, Anne Carrett, Alex Phelps, Zoe Bradley, Will Pritchard

The money will go towards their work, which includes operating a mental health hub in central Bristol. They have volunteers walking the streets of Bristol, to provide face-to-face support and immediate, compassionate interactions for those struggling with mental health.

£520 is the target, as this is the amount it costs to train a volunteer to go out and do this great work.

Suicide is the single leading cause of death for men under 50 and mental health is a significant contributing factor to this. You can read more here: https://www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/what-london-assembly-does/london-assembly-press-releases/suicide-single-leading-cause-death-men-under-50
