It is estimated that Michael will run a total of 400 miles and climb 40,000 feet\u2013 equivalent to climbing Mount Everest one and a half times.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of his responsibilities as Managing Director, Michael spends much of his free time active, being an avid martial artist and experienced long-distance runner. He\u2019s participated in numerous marathons and ultra-marathons. Wanting to make a strong, personal contribution towards the company\u2019s efforts, Michael now undertakes his greatest physical challenge yet.<\/p>\n<h3>All funds raised will go to PAPYRUS Prevention of Young Suicide<\/h3>\n<p>All proceeds from the run will be going to PAPYRUS Prevention of Young Suicide, a UK charity dedicated to the helping individuals under 35 struggling with suicidal thoughts and behaviour.<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 1997 by a group of bereaved parents, the charity has since grown to be the leading youth suicide prevention charity in the country. Staffed by trained suicide prevention advisers, they offer multiple contact channels, including their helpline \u2013 HOPELINEUK \u2013 through which under 35s struggling with thoughts of suicide can seek help and advice. The charity also specialises in suicide prevention education and affecting change in current legislation around suicide prevention on a regional and national level.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information on how to support the efforts of Michael, Re-flow, and PAPYRUS, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/re-flow.co.uk\/run\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/re-flow.co.uk\/run<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>References<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>(1)<a href=\"https:\/\/www.samaritans.org\/about-samaritans\/research-policy\/suicide-facts-and-figures\/latest-suicide-data\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> https:\/\/www.samaritans.org\/about-samaritans\/research-policy\/suicide-facts-and-figures\/latest-suicide-data\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#_ftnref2\" name=\"_ftn2\"><\/a>(2)<a href=\"https:\/\/www.constructionnews.co.uk\/health-and-safety\/increase-in-suicide-rate-shows-site-workers-still-need-to-be-reached-02-07-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> https:\/\/www.constructionnews.co.uk\/health-and-safety\/increase-in-suicide-rate-shows-site-workers-still-need-to-be-reached-02-07-2021\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#_ftnref3\" name=\"_ftn3\"><\/a>(3) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.highwaysindustry.com\/htm-talk-more-addressing-the-industrys-largest-growing-problem\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.highwaysindustry.com\/htm-talk-more-addressing-the-industrys-largest-growing-problem\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>(4)<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hse.gov.uk\/stress\/assets\/docs\/talking-toolkit-construction.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> https:\/\/www.hse.gov.uk\/stress\/assets\/docs\/talking-toolkit-construction.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michael Saunders, the co-founder and managing director of award-winning software company, Re-flow, prepares to undertake an ambitious fundraising effort for the suicide prevention charity, PAPYRUS, and to raise awareness for construction suicide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[309],"tags":[676,432,923,116833,934],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[172506],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-107025","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-health-safety-news","7":"tag-construction","8":"tag-health-safety","9":"tag-mental-health","10":"tag-sh-re-flow","11":"tag-wellbeing","12":"stakeholder_rel_tag-re-flow"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Tech boss runs 400 miles for construction suicide awareness<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Re-flow co-founder &amp;
