David Graham Cycling to every cathedral in England in 2015 for Rethink Mental Illness From Oakham Rutland


David Graham, a professional musician and director of Oakham-based music agency DG Music

He has challenged himself  to cycle to every C of E cathedral in England in 2015.

He will be cycling to 42 cathedrals, stretching from Newcastle and Carlisle in the north to Canterbury and Truro in the south, in a journey that will cover 2500 miles in total. David is planning to accomplish this impressive feat by covering small groups of cathedrals over a number of trips and hopes to complete his challenge by summer’s end. He will also be forgoing public transport by cycling return journeys - as if he wasn't doing enough!

He is undertaking this challenge in memory of his brother Allister Graham, a fun-loving, friendly guy who loved life but unfortunately suffered with mental health problems for many years. Sadly, these problems overcame him and he died from a drug overdose in 2008.  He was 32.

He hopes to raise as much money as he can for the charity ‘Rethink Mental Illness’, which supports people with serious mental health problems and their families. 1 in 4 people in the UK is affected by mental health issues in one way or another and I hope that the money raised will go some way to helping other people who have to deal with this difficult problem.

Some of David's cycling friends will be joining him on his trips and he urges you to support them as they support him. You can choose to make one total donation or maybe a donation based on each cathedral visit? It’s up to you, but I can assure you that every penny donated will help him to keep pedalling!

David is raising funds for a  charity was founded in 1972 and since then has helped thousands of people living with a variety of mental illnesses and conditions to recover a better quality of life including…

Anxiety disorders
Bipolar disorder
Borderline Personality Disorder
Cannabis and psychosis
Depression
Drugs, alcohol and mental health
Eating disorders
Personality disorders
Psychosis
Schizoaffective disorder
Schizophrenia

1 in 4 people in the UK are affected by mental illness however it remains a topic some find difficult to discuss. ‘Rethink’ aims to challenge attitudes towards mental disorder.
