Local man, Gavin Thomas will be one of the Baton Bearer in this years’ Baton of Hope.

It all began with two fathers reaching out in their grief on social media, each suffering unbearable loss. Despite all of this, they were determined to create hope for others. They became passionate advocate for change in UK suicide prevention policy.

Baton of Hope was launched and they will be in 20 locations across the country.

Gavin Thomas will be walking on the 26th September in Portsmouth.
