James Bond actor Daniel Craig’s £10,000 boost for dads walking in memory of their children

James Bond star Daniel Craig has donated £10,000 to three fathers who have set out on a 300-mile walk to raise funds for a suicide prevention charity after their daughters took their own lives.

Andy Airey, Mike Palmer and Tim Owen’s Three Dads Walking challenge begins today.

Andy Airey, who was born in Threlkeld, spent 26 years with George Fisher Ltd, becoming director of the world famous outdoor equipment supplier and achieving near-legendary status among its regular customers.

In 2018, Andy’s daughter Sophie took her own life aged 29.

Ever since, he has devoted his energies to raising awareness of suicide prevention and promoting the professional help and support available to young people struggling with life.

Andy, Mike and Tim began their walk from Penrith and will reach King’s Lynn in around 15 days’ time.

Andy and Amy Airey

Mike, of Sale, lost his 17-year-old daughter Beth to suicide and Tim’s daughter Emily died aged 19.

The walk is in aid of PAPYRUS, the national charity for the prevention of young suicides, and the three dads aim to cover at least 20 miles a day for 15 days.

“Suicide is the biggest killer of young people under the age of 35 in the UK,” said Andy, who lives at Morland, near Penrith.

“We only learned this terrifying fact because each of us has lost a daughter to suicide within the last three years.

“By raising awareness, we hope to prevent other families from suffering such indescribable pain and bring something positive out of the utter devastation of losing a child to suicide.”
