A Royal Mail postal worker has walked more than 400 miles to raise awareness for mental health and suicide prevention.
Nikki Gaynor, who is originally from Launceston, Cornwall, began her journey on 11 August at the Royal Mail sorting office in Darlington, County Durham, where she now lives.
Ms Gaynor, who is described as “The Walking Postie”, said she was raising awareness after losing her best friend to suicide and wanted to get people talking about their feelings.
“I started the journey because in the north-east of England we had the highest suicide rate in the UK, on average six people a week,” she said.
