Frazer and I are walking the 102 miles of the Cotswold Way from Chipping Camden to Bath in memory of our best friend Steve, who we tragically lost in December last year. We are doing this walk over 5 days from 15th-19th August 2022. 

This adventure is something that we always planned to do as a three, and we know that Steve will be with us the whole way. 

Bereavement by suicide is particularly traumatic. In addition to powerful feelings of grief, people can struggle with anger, guilt, and confusion. Initial feelings are often shock, numbness, and disbelief. This type of grief can lead to invasive thoughts, flashbacks, and suicide idealisation (65% of people bereaved by suicide are more likely to make an attempt on their own life, rather than those bereaved in other ways). It can manifest itself with lack of sleep and appetite, exhaustion, and low self-worth. 

This is why Sunflowers is an important charity, for which I would welcome your support.
