On April 27 2025, six of us will be taking on the challenge of the Manchester marathon in memory of Martin Walker, supporting a cause that truly mattered to him.

Mental health struggles are something that he faced quietly, and we want to raise awareness and support for those who are going through similar battles. Following on from the funeral, we’ve chosen to raise funds for MIND, a charity that provides crucial mental health services, resources, and advocacy.

Through this marathon, we want to make a difference in the lives of those affected by mental health challenges. Each mile we run is a tribute to his strength, struggles, and legacy, knowing that every step we take will help raise much-needed funds for MIND, so they can continue providing support to those who need it the most.
