Helping to Combat Suicide with sail2help
27 May 2021
Following the tragic loss of his eldest son George, and previously his brother Peter, former Royal Navy aviator Captain Tim Davies has put his heart into setting up the sail2help programme to raise awareness of mental health and help reduce the incidence of suicide. His mission now is to raise funds to facilitate ‘Sailing Escape Days’ for bereaved families and to continue making donations to Papyrus, the UK’s main suicide prevention charity for young people.
Here Tim shares his personal insight around mental health and explains what he hopes to achieve long term through sail2help.
