I am running in memory of a good friend Tyrone James Ward who tragically took his own life on April 27th 2023 aged 23, fighting with mental health for almost a year, with several attempts throughout that.

Nobody should feel alone or suffer negative thoughts, we are all in this together and we should all show our support to those who are in need, after all you never know when that someone could potentially be yourself one day.

Prevention is the greatest cure of any ailment and if we can encourage and fund greater support for all then all shall be in a better position.

Tell your friends, family and colleagues you love them, be there for them and always look after yourselves. Things do and will get better but nothing good comes easy, let's show some encouragement and stand together as one to help lessen this evil.

We support the people of Norfolk and Waveney with their mental health and wellbeing through our network of wellbeing centres, talking therapies, residential programmes, social groups, specialist programmes and mental health training. From prevention support to crisis support, wherever you are on your mental health journey, we are here for you.

Our ambition is to ensure that no one has to face poor mental health alone and with the right support and resources anybody can create a life that feels meaningful to them.
