Story

Michael Towers 01.02.91-19.05.14

In May 2014 our world was torn apart by the sudden death of our youngest son Michael aged 23 yrs. If we had known about PAPYRUS, we could have contacted them and been able to get some help for our son. We do not want other young people to suffer in silence but to get the help they need from HOPELINEUK 0800 068 41 41.

PAPYRUS is the national Charity for the Prevention of Young Suicide. Suicide is the biggest killer of young people under the age of 35 in the UK, in 2018 over 1800 young people took their own lives. PAPYRUS provides confidential support and advice to young people struggling with thoughts of suicide, and anyone worried about a young person through their helpline, HOPELINEUK. Every £5 raised can help pay for a life-saving contact to HOPELINEUK. Your donations really are lifesaving, thank you.
