Hi Family and friends, Looking for your support !

I will be taking part in the 2022 TCS Virtual London Marathon in support and appreciation of Liverpool Bereavement Service who helped me through my deep grief when I lost my lovely wife Joan. ❤️

The Virtual London Marathon is an event in which I will do the 26 miles 365 yards in the local area with the distance monitored and verified by an app issued by the marathon people on the day. When verified I will be sent a London Marathon Finisher’s medal and t-shirt. I intend to walk the distance  wearing my London Marathon Number Bib in the Liverpool area on the 2nd October. I will be starting early and doing a steady walk. My plan is to finish at the Yacht Club bar on Coburg Wharf at approx 5pm for a well earned drink. Invite is there for anyone that would like to join me. 🍻

The charity I am doing it for is Liverpool Bereavement Service.

Their counselling was amazing (especially my counsellor Chris)

They helped me on a journey of adjusting from the dark place I found myself in! From being unable to control my emotions and see a way ahead to being able to see a future of enjoying life again (but also cherishing my life with Joan ❤️).

I want this amazing service to be able to carry on to give help to other people when they are in the despair of grief after losing a loved one!

They receive no public funding and rely on donations and fundraising. Any donation would be gratefully received.

Thanks to anyone that can  support me!  

Peter !   ❤️
