Approximately 4 years ago, I found myself in crisis with my mental health and at a time of night when my crisis team were closed. So I tried SHOUT and they were a godsend to me that night. Fast forward a year and I had trained and began as a volunteer for SHOUT and over 3 years later I am still volunteering.

I have seen 1st hand the work SHOUT do, I have sat with people in distress wanting to end their life and be able to bring them back to a calmer moment. Every single person that texts into SHOUT may not see a way out but if they're in touch, there is hope.

I love helping people but the service needs funding and so I am doing my bit and walking 23 miles to raise money for SHOUT. Please if you can donate anything we would be so greatful.

Many thanks,

Zandra
