Three fathers who lost their daughters to suicide have joined forces to launch a charity beer.

Known as 3 Dads Walking, the group has partnered with Jennings Brewery to launch a new brew called ‘3 Dads walking to…Cumberland’, with a donation from every pint and cask sold donated from Jennings to PAPYRUS Prevention of Young Suicide.

Andy, co-founder of 3 Dads Walking, said: "We started 3 Dads Walking to turn our grief into something positive.

"Partnering with Jennings Brewery, a company that is so deeply rooted in its community, feels like a natural fit.

"Together, we hope to start more conversations and help save lives."

The collaboration aims to spark discussions about mental health and suicide prevention by reaching people in pubs and taprooms.

Since 2021, 3 Dads Walking have organised awareness walks, school visits and speaking events to encourage openness and understanding about suicide.

Rebecca Jobson, marketing manager at Jennings Brewery, said: "When we brought the brewery back to independent ownership last year, we said we’d include the community in every part of the comeback.

"That’s why we’re proud to stand alongside 3 Dads Walking and support their vital work in raising awareness around mental health and suicide prevention."

The beer will officially launch on January 30, with the beer available in the Jennings Taproom and some pubs.

A donation from every pint and cask sold will be donated from Jennings to PAPYRUS to support its suicide prevention work.

Andy will also be hosting a pop up in Jennings taproom on Saturday, February 7.
