I have decided to take on this challenge in April to help raise money for survivors of bereavement by suicide. As most of you know I lost my beloved Pete in June 2019 and I am doing this in his honour. SOBS were the only support group locally who helped me at the start of my new journey. 

This is a massive challenge to me, it might not seem like it to most but I am determined to do this for my Pete. 

Thank you in advance for any donations, any support will be invaluable to me.

30 Years ago, in April 1991, Alice Middleton set up the first ever Survivors of bereavement by Suicide support group and Helpline from her living room in Hull. After losing her Brother to Suicide Alice struggled to find anyone she could turn to for support so she placed an advert in her local paper to find others who had been impacted by suicide loss. With that advert, SOBS was born. Fast forward to 2021 and Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide are a National Charity with over 180 Volunteers 55 support groups throughout the UK, many of which are offering virtual support whilst we are unable to meet face to face....and this number is growing! Sadly, the need for their services are ever increasing and as a non profit organisation, rely on fundraising donations to continue to meet the needs of those impacted by a suicide loss.
