Story

Earlier this year I said goodbye to my baby boy who lost his battle with mental health and sadly took his own life. He opened up to me about everything including his feelings but ultimately there was so much more going on in his head. I'm supporting this charity in the hope that my loss will save another young life.

Please help us support this amazing charity and wish me luck.

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.
