Running for a Cause
Out Of The Blue is a fund-raising body established in memory of Will Beckett who took his own life at Beachy Head in January 2013, at the age of 42. The tragedy came as an incredible shock for his family and friends - it simply came 'Out Of The Blue'.

This event aims to raise funds for four amazing charities which helped Will's family and friends in the immediate aftermath of his death. Out Of The Blue raises money to support these charities so that they can continue to help others. These charities are:

• Winston's Wish: Gives hope to grieving children following the death of a parent of sibling.
• Dragonflies: Offers free support to children and their families who are experiencing pre/post bereavement.
• CALM: The Campaign Against Living Miserably are taking a stand against suicide, standing up to stereotypes to show that life is always worth living.
• The Beachy Head Chaplaincy Team: This valued search and rescue charity seek to save lives at Beachy Head, East Sussex. They patrol on foot and by care and respond to emergency calls locating anyone at risk.
