I knew Ian and from the Hardmoors family but more personally through the wonderful family at let’s run in Stokesley. He was one of the gentlest and funny men I met and he was a friend to so many. He was infamous across the hardmoors community with his epic videos and support for others. His smiley face obviously hid a lot of pain.
Ian passed away this weekend after losing a battle with his mental health and I don’t want this to continue to happen. It’s ok to not be ok. It’s ok to say you are suffering. Please consider a donation however small in his memory.
