Story

It will be 2 years since we lost our fun-loving son, Ivan, to suicide following a period of mental illness. This year we want to help support young people learning to come to terms with mental health challenges and to help dispell the stigma around living with psychosis.

It's Mental Health Awareness Week 13-19 May, so we are a bit early, but wanted to mark Ivan's anniversary on 1 May.

Donations will go to ReThink Mental Illness https://www.rethink.org/ - a leading charity that champions equality, fair treatment, and maximum quality of life for those severely affected by mental illness.

Friends and family are welcome to join us for part/all of the 20 mile walk through our favourite holiday destination and the last place we enjoyed a family holiday together in April 2022.
