Thank you for taking the time to view my fundraising campaign. 

I'll be running my first event at the Northampton Half Marathon on Sunday 14th September. I have chosen to fundraise for PAPYRUS Prevention of Young Suicide. Which is the UK charity dedicated to the prevention of suicide and the promotion of positive mental health and emotional wellbeing in young people.

Suicide is the biggest killer of people aged 35 and under in the UK. We believe that suicide is preventable.

PAPYRUS was founded in 1997 by a group of bereaved parents, who had each lost children to suicide. Our founding parents shared core beliefs that suicide is preventable, and that those of us with lived experience of suicide have a valuable and unique contribution to make to the wider conversation around suicide.

Research shows that with appropriate early intervention and support, suicide by young people can be prevented.

Any donations will be greatly appreciated.
