If you have arrived by scanning the QR code from one of our cards ... ‘Thank You’ and 'Welcome'. Please read on to see what it’s all about, what it might mean for you, and how you can join in.
David’s Dash has been born out of loss ... loss of hope and loss of a precious life. It is inspired by Linda Ellis’ poem, The Dash. Although David ended his life, we want to honour his 'dash' and bring hope to others. Check out the posts on the map below, add your own experiences and reflections by using the form below the map, or visit the resources page to access other information and support.
As we develop this space together, we want to extend David’s dash (his impact on others' lives), by bringing hope to those who may be struggling to continue their own journey and supporting those who have lost someone too soon.
David’s life ended before he could achieve many of his goals and dreams, or experience many of life’s joys, big or small. He had plans; some of which he achieved, and many left waiting.
We want to help David continue the journey he wasn’t able to complete, and we invite you to play your part by taking the card you found to another place and leave it there. Add the location on the map and upload any comments, stories, achievements, or experiences which celebrate the good things life can offer. You might say why you think David would enjoy it, add photos or music clips, or suggest websites and resources that others might find helpful.
Please use form below map and once you have 'submitted' please wait for the 'thank you' message before closing to return to the map. If you don't get this message and you are using a phone, please try using a pc, laptop, or tablet. The site is in early development phase and there are sometimes a few glitches. Thank you
