PRINCE GEORGE — Tyler Waddell hit rock bottom in his hometown of Williams Lake. Homeless and through shelters, Waddell found help eight months ago through the Canadian Mental Health Association and is now back on his feet…or pedals.

He is in the middle of a journey taking him from Victoria, to the Yukon on his bike. Along the way, Waddell is encouraging people to find the mental health support they need and has already led numerous people into detox. All funds raised along his ride are going to the Canadian Mental Health Association.

Waddell asks anyone going through mental health struggles to talk about it and find the help they need. You can find Waddell by searching Light the Pathway on Facebook.
