Phil's 30th Birthday | 100mile Lost Hours Walk
Phil's 30th birthday would have been on the 11th April this year.
To celebrate his life I am walking the 100 mile Leicestershire Round to try and raise some money to help others see their 30th's and to feel a little happier.
We will be setting off on his birthday and finishing on Sunday the 18th April.
If you can donate anything towards this challenge in memory of my amazing brother it would be greatly appreciated.

From CALM:
I’m walking against suicide.
This April I'm taking on the Lost Hours Walk to deal with grief differently and defiantly, and to remember our sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, partners and friends lost to suicide.
Here’s why:
On average, 125 people take their own lives every week in the UK.
75% of people who take their own lives are not known to mental health services or have not been in touch with mental health services within the last year.
135 people are directly affected by every suicide.
We’re coming together across the country to send a message that that’s not ok. We’re taking to the streets, parks, pavements, public footpaths and promenades to walk against struggling in silence, against being alone, against living miserably.
Anyone can hit crisis point. CALM’s free, anonymous and confidential helpline and webchat are there for anyone who needs support. They’re open from 5pm-midnight every day. Just £8 is enough to fund a professionally-trained helpline worker to answer a call that could save a life. Your support will help fund CALM’s life-saving services when they’re needed most.
You can join my team or donate to my walk below.

Fundraising for such a critical cause in Phil's name is testament to the lovely guy he was, your love for him, and how strongly you feel about appropriately and sufficiently supporting those with mental health issues (rightly so). Let me know if I can support in any other ways, please. I love ya so much. xx
