2 Marathons in 2 Days raising money for The Hunchman Trust

For those that don’t know, The Hunchman Trust was established in 2023 in memory of 'Hunch', the father of Charlie, Ben and Will Smith, whom they tragically lost to suicide in 2010. Their journey through that difficult period was made possible by the supportive network surrounding them; the boys' family and friends created the environment that they required, enabling them to cope with the challenges they faced.

Recognizing that not everyone is fortunate enough to have such a support system, they founded The Hunchman Trust. In the UK, thousands of young people are experiencing tragic loss, feeling isolated and without anyone to turn to. Their mission is to change that.

Their focus is simple: to help people who are grieving the loss of a loved one, with a particular emphasis on those affected by suicide.

As a grant-giving charity, they raise funds through a variety of different fundraising events while advocating the benefits of physical challenges to overcome mental struggles. Collaborating with like-minded charities and organizations, their aim is to develop initiatives that offer a broad spectrum of support and guidance for young people navigating a loss, ensuring that ‘no one feels left behind’.
