A MAN devastated by loss of a friend to suicide is doing a 7in7 half-marathon challenge May 3 to 9 to raise money for a Bradford mental health charity.
Frank Cullen, who grew up in Wyke but now lives in Shipley, wanted to do the challenge for the Speak-In Club after a close friend committed suicide.
"It was shocking," said Frank. "We had no idea what he was going through.
"I've also had my battles with mental health. Three years ago I tried to commit suicide. I ended in a psychiatric hospital.
"I learned though that talking about your problems is best. I used to bottle everything up."
