Laura & Adam's fundraiser for The Sebastian Hunter Memorial Trust

Laura Walford is raising money for The Sebastian Hunter Memorial Trust
In memory of Sebastian Hunter

Blenheim Palace Triathlon 2026 · 6 June 2026 to 7 June 2026 ·

SHMT was founded in memory of Seb, who tragically took his own life aged just 18, in 2001. In his memory, the Trust supports education & opportunity for children in rural India, building schools, funding teachers and providing vital resources. We encourage mental health awareness through education.

Story

7th June 2026 marks 25 years — a quarter of a century — since our adored brother, Seb, tragically took his own life aged just 18. It’s hard to comprehend how much time has passed, and how many moments, memories, and milestones he has missed.

In the same year, we founded a small charity in his name — Seb’s — supporting children in a remote area of South India. Over the past 25 years, Seb’s has grown beyond anything we could have imagined. It has helped educate, feed, and nurture many thousands of children, offering opportunities that simply wouldn’t have existed otherwise. Some of these children have gone on to become doctors, nurses, and professionals who have transformed not only their own lives, but those of their families and communities.

We feel incredibly proud of everything that has been achieved in Seb’s memory, and deeply grateful to everyone who has supported us along the way — through donations, events, visits, and countless acts of kindness.

This year, we’re marking the anniversary by taking part in the Blenheim Palace Triathlon. If you’re able to contribute — £5, £10, or anything at all — we would be so grateful. Just £35 can feed and educate a child for an entire month.

**Just to add to the year, I (Laura) am also taking part in the Goodwood Half Marathon in October for the fantastic charity, Amber, which helps young homeless people. So your generous donations will be supporting two wonderful causes.

Thank you so much for your support.

Laura & Adam xx
