SKY DIVE IN TOMS MEMORY - MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT

Hi everyone, I am Jayde. I am a young widow, I lost my beautiful fiancé Tom through mental health on the 5th July 2024.

Losing Tom has been one of the most painful experiences I have ever had to go through. Not only have I lost my fiancé but our children have also lost their dad. Since losing Tom, it has been a living nightmare for all of us. Especially with learning to adjust to life without him.

In this grieving process I have found comfort through the use of TikTok. The friends I have connected with have been incredible throughout my journey and I have made some friends for life. The support I have received is exceptionally overwhelming. One friend I made around 3 years ago before I returned to tiktok after losing Tom, is a lovely lad called Sammy V.

One of my goals in life now is to make Tom proud and to do as much as I possibly can to support men’s mental health. I feel like I have failed Tom and my children due to not being able to save him in the end so if I can contribute and work hard towards supporting men’s mental health in any way, I would at least feel like I have achieved something in his name.

I wish to do a sky dive in Toms memory but unfortunately, due to health reasons I couldn’t actually do the jump myself. This is where Sammy comes in. Sammy will be the one to do the jump for me. Sammy is also a supporter of men’s mental health. Sammy is petrified to do this however, being for a good cause and for charity he is willing to do this which means more than he will ever know!

All proceedings from any raised funds will be donated to a men’s mental health group in my local area named “Primal instincts”. This mental health group are absolutely fantastic in my local community and the support they offer specifically to men is outstanding. Early morning river dives and other planned activities as well as supporting the local community and families in need around Christmas time. This was a group that I suggested to Tom to join but sadly we lost Tom before he could join.

I am planning for Sammy to do this sky dive on 4th July this year, which will mark the 1 year anniversary of losing Tom and it gives plenty of time to raise money.

If you are able to donate, please support this cause. ANY donation is appreciated, even just sharing the post. Men’s mental health really is not taken seriously enough in this cruel world. Sadly, it seems the support is just not there.

The sky dive itself is being funded by Sammy and myself. All donations will go to primal instincts.

I would like to thank anyone who donates! Even sharing the page is greatly appreciated.

Thankyou for taking the time to read! All my love Jayde
