Edale Skyline - Sponsored Walk
Walk with Us for Hope – A 30km Challenge for Suicide Prevention
The Baton of Hope is coming to Derby/Derbyshire on 13th September 2025, carried by those bereaved and affected by suicide. Suicide is the biggest killer of men under 50 and is increasingly impacting young people, with over 17 lives lost every day in the UK.
To support this vital cause, the Baton of Hope Committee is leading a sponsored walk around the Edale Skyline, covering a staggering 30km over 10 hours. This challenge will help raise much-needed funds to host the UK’s largest suicide prevention initiative.
