PAPYRUS is the national charity for the prevention of young suicide.

Story

We will will be running the Sevilla Marathon in February in memory of one of our best mates in uni, and housemate of three years, Cameron Burke.

Cam had an unmatched confidence and social genius. He would quickly fill any room with his jokes and laughter. He took a genuine interest in the people he was around, treating people with good humour and love.

Living with him for three years, we saw Cam at his best. But we also saw someone who struggled and could shut off from other people. The world is genuinely poorer for not having Cam in it and we cannot put into words how devastated and heartbroken we are to never see him again.

PAPYRUS is the national Charity for the Prevention of Young Suicide. Suicide is the biggest killer of young people under the age of 35 in the UK, in 2018 over 1800 young people took their own lives. PAPYRUS provides confidential support and advice to young people struggling with thoughts of suicide, and anyone worried about a young person through their helpline, HOPELINEUK. Every £5 raised can help pay for a life-saving contact to HOPELINEUK. Your donations really are lifesaving, thank you.
