In 2024, I lost my beautiful sister Ava to suicide.

To honour Ava's memory and help prevent other families from experiencing the heartbreak that ours has, our family and friends have spent the last two years fundraising for charities that support young people struggling with their mental health.

My next challenge is the Great North Run, which I will be running in support of PAPYRUS, a charity dedicated to preventing suicide and offering help to young people in crisis.

Every donation, no matter how big or small, will help PAPYRUS continue its vital work supporting those who need it most. Any support would mean so much to me and my family. Thank you for helping us keep Ava's memory alive while raising awareness and making a difference for others.

Papyrus is a young person’s suicide prevention charity. That means we provide urgent support, education, campaigns and conversations that keep children and young people safe from suicide. And above all else, we’re here. We’re always here. That’s how we save lives.

Every £15 raised can contribute towards a life-saving contact to HopeLine 24/7. Your donations really are changing lives, thank you
