16 days to Suicide Bereavement UK’s conference in Manchester. Every year it feels less like “work” and more like a reunion, catching up with familiar faces, learning loads, and leaving with the batteries properly recharged. Still a few spaces available — would be lovely to see you there! #sbukconf25

Been to Derry for the weekend. Whilst there I did the Derry City park run. First time I have managed to run all the way. Time is getting better each week. 31 mins 8 secs. This is my 6th park run and I'm loving them #parkrun

'Friendship is the golden ribbon that ties the world together'

Last night, I joined a running club. I worried about my age, fitness and if I’d fit in. But with a marathon on the horizon, I knew it was time. The welcome? Incredible. The lesson? The biggest barriers are often the ones we build ourselves! Take the leap. You might be pleasantly surprised! 🙂

Loving watching Rod Stewart live at Glastonbury. He's amazing. Blast from the past. Evokes lots of great memories 😊

Congratulations 👏. So much infectious camaraderie at Parkrun - it’s a great mood booster.

The hardest part is that first step. Congratulations! 👏

Did my first ever park run this morning and feel very proud of myself. I aim to reduce the time each week. My first step preparing to run a marathon. I really enjoyed it and people are very friendly. Highly recommend them. #parkrun

Trainers ready for my 5k park run in the morning. This is my first step preparing for a marathon next year. I'm not fit. Not run for long time. No idea how long it will take me, but up for the challenge. 😲

Pause for thought. I don't know about you, but I have several repairs in gold. Sometimes I need to be reminded of this important message below. Sending lots of love to those who are struggling and who might receive some comfort from this message xx

Yes you can

I'm debating whether or not to run a marathon next year. I'm 65, not fit, but could run for a bus! Do you think it would be achievable to run the Manchester Marathon in April 2026, if I started training seriously next week?

Thrilled that my friend & colleague Emeritus Professor John Gibson will be speaking at SUICIDE BEREAVEMENT UK's international conf on 25th Sept 2025. John and Isabel are doing amazing work at The Canmore Trust. For more info r click on link suicidebereavementuk.com/wp-content/u... #sbukconf25
