Walk for Every Story Each year, around 92 people in Surrey die by suicide. Behind every number is a person — a story, a family, a friend, a life that mattered. Walk for Every Story is a walk of remembrance, hope, and action. We walk to honour those we've lost. We walk to stand beside those who are struggling. We walk to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and say: every story matters, and every life is worth saving. Whether you're walking in memory of a loved one, for your own journey, or in solidarity with others, your steps help create a community where no one walks alone. Together, we can bring light to dark places, break the silence, and walk toward a future where support is stronger and suicide is no longer a silent statistic.
