Jamie, our beautiful, shining, perfect boy died by suicide, out of the blue, in July 2019, aged 17.

The loss of him, with all his wonder, his gifts and graces, is devastating for us, our families, friends and neighbours, his friends and all who knew him.

This is the aftermath of suicide, every death a lost world.

We want to help prevent other deaths by suicide, particularly young people and this fundraising trek and London Marathon for Papyrus is part of that work.

PAPYRUS is the national Charity for the Prevention of Young Suicide. Suicide is the biggest killer of young people under the age of 35 in the UK, in 2018 over 1800 young people took their own lives. PAPYRUS provides confidential support and advice to young people struggling with thoughts of suicide, and anyone worried about a young person through their helpline, HOPELINEUK. Every £5 raised can help pay for a life-saving contact to HOPELINEUK. Your donations really are lifesaving, thank you.
