Dawn of Hope
Martin Searle Solicitors are Organising ‘Dawn Of Hope’ in Aid of Grassroots Suicide Prevention on 12 September 2025
On Friday 12 September 2025, our firm are holding our second sponsored walk called ‘Dawn Of Hope’. This is inspired by our Office Manager, Amy O’Shea, who organised our first annual ‘Dawn of Hope’ walk last September. This raised over £2,400 to support the vital work that Grassroots Suicide Prevention carry out. We want to raise further funds to support their work this year.
We are a campaigning law firm that makes a difference in our community. This also involves supporting causes that are important to our staff and clients. Sadly, suicide is far too common in our society and yet it still remains a taboo subject.
Our Walk of Hope will raise money and awareness for Grassroots Suicide Prevention and is in memory of all those we have lost to suicide and to support those battling with their mental health.
Starting at the Peace Statue on Brighton Seafront at 6am, we will proceed along the beach towards Brighton Marina. For those who wish to join the walk at the Palace Pier, we will reach there at 6.15am. At 7am there will be a reception at Malmaison at the Marina. A representative from Grassroots Suicide Prevention will outline the importance of their work and how your donations help them provide valuable education and support in our community. To take part in our walk, sign up here .
Local businesses and individuals can also donate to our JustGiving page where we are raising funds for Grassroots Suicide Prevention.
Dawn of Hope takes place the month before our annual Disability Matters campaign. We run this campaign every October to coincide with Disability Awareness Week.
In 2025, we are concentrating our Disability Matters campaign around some of the challenges neurodiverse people face in the workplace. This can lead to isolation, depression and anxiety and we will provide best practice advice to employers on supporting their neurodiverse staff at work. .
