Don't Stop Talking

Co-organized

Harry Hughes and Dominique Hughes are organizing this fundraiser.

Donation protected

In memory of our son and brother Reece Hughes who died by suicide in 2021, we'd like to show kindness and generosity to others in need of a little help and encouragement in staying positive and hopeful when the stresses and strains of life are becoming overwhelming.

We currently have two confirmed projects.

Supporting the charity Mercy UK in setting up a new project for those in some kind of crisis - https://www.mercyuk.org/ This includes therapeutic support, counselling and provides fitness and help from a nutritionist
Sponsoring the training of Mental Health Ambassadors at Midsomer Norton Rugby Club (Reece's home club) - http://midsomernortonrfc.rfu.club/

We would also like to encourage creative and musical talent by sponsoring membership of Murmuration Choir (Bristol), with whom Reece sang, or an award at his own secondary school, Somervale School (Midsomer Norton).

We will also use this fund to facilitate donations to the work of Grow Wilder (Bristol), where Reece trained and worked as a Grow Leader. https://www.growwilder.co.uk/

In giving to us, please feel free to specify one of these projects if you'd rather not make a general donation.
