Nelson’s first Hope Walk is underway today with members of the public making their way from Tahuna Sportsground to Trafalgar Park via Rocks Rd. The walk was established last year in order to raise awareness of suicide and mental health issues. After the first Nelson event today, organisers aim to grow Hope Walk into a bigger event that spreads the word that it’s ok to talk about suicide and mental health issues. Money raised through today’s walk will be going to victim support.
