Story

In May 2024 Tom, my oldest and dearest friend, lost his battle with depression and took his own life.

Tom and I went to playschool together and he was a pillar of my life ever since. Since his death I have struggled with regret over now making more memories with him, and guilt over a promise that I felt I broke.

But despite his struggles, Tom left a legacy of love and warmth and I'm determined to honour him by adding to his legacy.

I'm going to run 141km from the flat where Tom died in Brighton back to his childhood home in Hadleigh, South Essex. I'll be making the pilgrimage on his behalf as a representation of the final journey home that he never got to make in life.

Big Moose help people who are struggling like Tom was and what's more, they do it incredibly efficiently! Referrals are responded to within 24hrs and people are personally matched to a therapist and sat in front of them within 7 days!

Please consider donating so that we can help as many people like Tom as possible...

Thank you
