Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
This year is ten years since I tragically ‘out of the blue’ lost my brother to suicide. I still feel guilty that I wasn’t able to help him , despite always asking him ‘are you ok’ and all I got back was ‘yes’.
Well , he obviously wasn’t alright and I shall always have questions that have no answers.
I would like to raise money to help Grass roots in the prevention of suicide. We need to all be more aware of people around us who may be struggling, they are not always the quiet ones!
Challenges like the Marathon des sables Morocco and Peru , swimming marathon swims , cycling the Rocky Mountains over the last few years have been my therapy to help me come to terms with my brothers loss.
Taking on this huge ENDUROMAN ARCH TO ARC solo challenge is the the toughest one by far , it will push me harder than I’ve done before. It involves walking from Marble Arch to Dover (86 miles) , swimming the English Channel (21 plus miles) and cycling to Paris (181 miles ).On completion I will be the oldest person to have achieved this.
