We have decided to start raising money for Footsteps Youth Wellbeing, run from our local GP surgery after the sudden and tragic death, on October 8th this year, of our beloved son, Dominic Callum Tucker.  Dominic, who was only just twenty four, struggled with anxiety and depression from the age of fourteen, but we struggled to find any support to help him through this stressful time.  I’m sure if he had been able to access this kind of support group, we might not be enduring this heart-breaking and devastating loss. With family and friends, our first walk was completed on the 8th December from our house in Eaglescliife, following the river walk into Yarm High Street. 

We raised £261.21 and together we walked 205,900 steps in memory of Dominic.  We did this for him and all the other young people who are suffering with anxiety and depression.  No family should have to go through what we have endured, but hopefully with groups like this, support will be available to prevent other families going through this.

We are so grateful to the family and friends of Dominic Tucker who have since raised a huge £219 with a second walk in February 2020 in memory of Dominic, totalling an incredible 243,600 steps between them.
