The Canadian Mental Health Association of Grey-Bruce is holding the 3rd Annual Walk for Courage in just a few weeks.

Taking place on July 20th at Owen Sound Fitness and Training has a goal to raise funds and awareness for mental health services.

The walk is in honour of Jeffrey Courage who in 2019 committed suicide.

The event raised a major need for comprehensive mental health services and greater awareness.

The Walk of Courage was established in 2022 which Jeffrey’s mother, Tawnia Courage says is more than a yearly fundraiser but a gathering to honour the memory of those who have lost to suicide and to stand with those struggling.

Registration for the walk opens at 9am with the 5km walk taking place at 9:30.
