Story

Thank you for visiting my Just Giving page in memory of Dad.

Taking Action on Addiction is a national campaign that aims to reframe existing perceptions, build awareness and enable more people to get the help they need. Their work includes research, prevention, treatment, aftercare, as well as professional education and family support.

It calls for addiction to be treated as a serious mental health condition and for increased access to treatment, support and care so that recovery can be possible for everyone.

I start my fundraising with a 5k on the two year anniversary of Dad's death (13th April) , followed by a the LONDON MARATHON on the 21st April, eek!

Dad's approach to those in crisis was always one of love, forgiveness and support. Along with his infectious sense of humour and love for film and literature, I hope his legacy can help those battling addiction as well as their families and friends. I know he will be looking down, cheering me on!

Thank you so much in advance for any donations you can spare. No matter how big or small, every £ makes a difference!

Love Pol x

Marc Zundel, 26th March 1956- 13th April 2022
