Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page.
I am participating in the Wing Walk for PAPYRUS on August 9th, 2025, in memory of a very special young man who left us too soon.
It is heart-breaking that someone so young could not see a place for themselves in this world. Unfortunately, this is all too common among young people today. However, there is hope and help available through the charity PAPYRUS, which can prevent other families from experiencing such profound loss.
Suicide is the biggest killer of young people under the age of 35 in the UK, with over 1,800 young lives lost each year.
PAPYRUS provides confidential support and advice to young people struggling with thoughts of suicide, as well as to anyone concerned about a young person through their helpline, HOPELINE247.
Donations are vital for PAPYRUS, along with raising awareness about the issues faced by young people and ensuring that they know help is available when needed.
This challenge is not one I take lightly; I have personal fear of heights. Also must meet a weight limit that I am now confident I can achieve. But just for one day… I will be Wing Walking in honor of those we have lost.
PAPYRUS is the national charity for the Prevention of Young Suicide. 100% of donations raised will go directly to PAPYRUS. Every £15 raised can contribute towards a life-saving contact to HOPELINE247. Your donations truly change lives, and I am deeply grateful for your support.
