Story

In 2022 we lost our middle son Dylan to suicide. He was 19 years old and had struggled with his mental health.

The pain of losing someone in such circumstances will never leave - but the memory drives us on to try and help prevent other young adults, and their families and friends, from going through the same suffering.

In April 2025 I will be running the LONDON MARATHON (my first and last one!!) to raise as much money for YOUNG MINDS - the UK's leading charity championing the well-being and mental health of children and young people.

Please give what you can, no matter how small the amount - every penny goes directly towards helping support those young adults for whom life often feels overwhelming.

Together we can help save lives.

Thank you xx
