100km for Suicide Awareness – Our January Challenge in memory of Thea, Harry and Nathan

This January, my son (Rueben 7) and I (Lucy) will be running 100km to raise money and awareness for suicide prevention. This cause is deeply personal to us — over the past few years, we’ve lost three people close to us to suicide. Their absence is felt every day, and it’s a reminder of how many people are struggling in silence.

We’re running not just for them, but for everyone who has been affected. We want to stand up, speak up, and help make sure more people get the support they need before it’s too late.

Suicide is often hidden — but the pain is real, and it touches families, friends, and entire communities. If our miles can help even one person feel seen, listened to, or supported, then every step is worth it.

If you’re able to donate, share, or simply send encouragement, it would mean the world. Every contribution helps fund vital mental health resources and support networks.

If you or someone you know is struggling, please know you are not alone.

Thank you for reading, for supporting, and for helping us spread hope
