She is doing this to mark the anniversary of losing her friend James to suicide, which was a completely earth shattering experience for his friends and family. Suicide is the biggest killer of people under the age of 35 and the biggest killer of men under the age of 50.If you are able to donate it would be much appreciated and you can do so via the link below. She is also looking for people to join her for a leg or two if you would like to. If you’re keen to get involved please reach out to Ashleigh (07432 562438).
