Story

Thank you in advance for your contribution to this important cause.

In memory of a childhood friend who took his own life, we are raising money for Wirral based suicide prevention service, The Martin Gallier Project. This is a great community based non-clinical service, providing suicide prevention, intervention and post-intervention support. Additionally, the service also provide Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training workshops to families, businesses and partner services across the region. They also support individuals & families bereaved or affected by suicide. Please click here to find out more about this superb charity; https://www.themartingallierproject.org/

Our challenge is to climb the "National 3 Peaks" of Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike & Snowdon within 24 hours.

We hope to continue to raise awareness, normalise conversations around mental health, and hopefully raise some much needed funding for such an important community based service in The Martin Gallier Project - "it costs on average £80 to provide a life saving suicide intervention, so every donation really does make a vital difference". Thank you.

We really appreciate anything you are able to donate.
