In October 2014, my friend Anna took her own life aged 19. By cycling from London to Amsterdam (360 miles) and doing a tandem skydive in her memory, I hope to increase awareness and raise important funds for PAPYRUS.

These activities are both self-funded so 100% of money raised goes directly to PAPYRUS.

Suicide is the biggest killer of young people under 35 in the UK.

PAPYRUS is the national charity for the prevention of young suicide and believes that many young suicides are preventable. They operate HOPELINEUK, a confidential call, text, and email helpline for young people with thoughts of suicide or those concerned about a young person who may have thoughts of suicide. Every £5 raised can help pay for a potentially life-saving contact to HOPELINEUK from a young person wanting to stay safe from their thoughts of suicide. Thank you.
