I’m walking 72 miles (116 km) this September for Suicide Prevention Month.

In 2023, I faced one of the darkest times of my life and battled severe suicidal thoughts. I truly didn’t believe I’d make it through. But I’m still here—and I want to use my story to raise awareness, start conversations, and support others who might be struggling.

The 116 km distance represents the suicide prevention helpline number ( Samaritans 116 123). Every step I take is a reminder that no matter how heavy life feels, we can keep moving forward.

All donations will go directly to Mind, helping provide life-saving support for those in crisis.

Please donate what you can, share this fundraiser, and help remind others that they are not alone.
