On the 27th of September I will be taking on the Swindon half marathon. I will be doing it all in memory of a very special person, Dave Reynolds who sadly took his own life on June 11th 2025.

Dave was one of the most caring, smiliest and nicest people you would ever meet. He lit up a room instantly and made everyone feel important. He loved running and football, he would always check up on my football, say how amazing I was doing and I’m sure he’s still proud of me.

Losing Dave changed a lot of peoples lives forever, and it’s hard to put into words the impact he had on those around them. So the run is a way of me honouring his memory and more importantly raising awareness around mental health.

Being a young man myself, I know how important it is to reach out and always know it’s okay not to be okay. Please speak up and don’t suffer alone!

Any donation, no matter how small would mean a lot and all donations go to Swindon and Gloucestershire MIND. Thank you!
