Update after the event: Many thanks to all who came on the walk, to ITV News Central for covering the cause, and to the White Lion for hosting us. And very many thanks to all who have donated to date. Donations to HUMEN on this page still welcome even now after the walk! Cheers, Evan 

Join me on a 5,151 metre (3.2 mile) walk from The White Lion in Hampton-in-Arden as part of the HUMEN Rise Against Suicide Pub Pilgrimage starting at 11am on Sun 4 December. There is no booking - please just turn up ready to walk at 11am.

Over 5,000 men in the UK and Ireland took their own lives in the last year, accounting for 74% of all suicides. However, men are half as likely to seek out the help and support they need for their mental health, as 14 men take their own lives every day. This Pub Pilgrimage is aimed at bringing friends, families and communities together to reflect and honour those we have lost. HUMENs supporters from around the country will embark on a 5,151m walk, starting and ending at participating pubs. The 5,151 metres represent each man who lost his life to suicide in the last year. HUMEN is a movement to improve and maintain men's mental health. Moving beyond the false and limiting notions of what it means to be a man, or a lad, or a bloke. Where inner health is valued as much as outer, creating a better world for men and women. We're lighting a better way forward.

There are HUMEN Rise Against Suicide Pub Pilgrimage walks around the country on 4 Dec - see the full list at https://www.wearehumen.org/rise-against-suicide-2022
