Join us on Wednesday 28th January to hear from local man Leodhais Macpherson, who recently completed an extraordinary challenge: running 128 marathons in 128 consecutive days in memory of his brother Conor, who died by suicide in 2018. Covering over 3,300 miles, Leodhais raised more than £100,000 for the mental health charity If U Care Share.

In this talk, he'll share his deeply personal journey of loss, endurance, and hope, offering powerful insights into grief, mental health, and finding meaning after tragedy. This will be an inspiring evening for anyone touched by suicide or supporting others through difficult times.

Tea and Coffee will be available.

This is a free event but donations to If U Care Share are very welcome!

Tickets are limited to only 20, on a first come, first served basis. Maximum of two tickets per order.
