Walking for Lily and INQUEST

Paul Lucas is raising money for INQUEST
In memory of Lily

Camino Portugues - walking to Santiago de Compostela · 9 May 2026

INQUEST is the only charity combining free specialist support for bereaved people following a state related death, with the influence to achieve change in legislation, policy and practice. We are independent of government and entirely reliant on grants and donations to continue our vital work.

Story

After the tragic and senseless death of my daughter Lily, i have found the support of INQUEST to be invaluable.

To help others receive support from INQUEST, I am walking the Camino Portugues for 7 days, about 160km, to Santiago de Compostela to raise funds for the charity.

Every year, families across the UK lose loved ones in state-related circumstances – in police custody, prisons, mental health settings and other institutions. In their most painful moments, these families face a system stacked against them.

INQUEST stands beside the families. They provide free, expert advice and fight tirelessly for truth, accountability and lasting change to prevent future deaths.

With your support, INQUEST can:

- Offer life-changing casework and legal support to bereaved families.

- Campaign for reforms that save lives.

- Expose systemic failures and fight for justice at the highest levels.

Your donation – no matter the size – helps families find answers, challenge injustice and create a fairer future.
