A group of UPNC girls and I are taking part in the Plymouth 10K In October in order to raise money for PAPYRUS (prevention of young suicide).
Suicide is the biggest killer of young people under 35 in the UK. It is so scary to think that many young people with long lives ahead of them feel such pain and suffering that they feel they have no other option than suicide. PAPYRUS is the national charity for the prevention of young suicide and believes that many young suicides are preventable. They operate HOPELINEUK, a confidential call, text, and email helpline for young people with thoughts of suicide or those concerned about a young person who may have thoughts of suicide. Every £5 raised can help pay for a potentially life-saving contact to HOPELINEUK from a young person wanting to stay safe from their thoughts of suicide. Thank you.
