Story

Many people find it hard to speak openly or ask for help, but talking can be life-saving – whether it's with a colleague, family member, friend or helpline like Samaritans. Every 10 seconds, Samaritans volunteers respond to a call for help. Samaritans are available, for free, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to listen and support people with whatever they are facing, with no judgement. It’s only your kind donations and 23,000 listening volunteers that ensure Samaritans can always be there for anyone struggling to cope.

To aid the Samaritans mission i'm fundraising via a 'mop chop' and cutting off my hair on the 16th September. The hair will then be donated to the Little Princess Trust that makes wigs for kids.
