Suicide kills 19 people a day in the UK, but free, effective support is increasingly hard to access. We offer fortnightly 50-minute sessions with a carefully trained volunteer, allowing people to talk openly about their suicidal feelings in a welcoming and completely confidential setting.

Story

In the UK we lose someone to suicide every 80 minutes and it is the highest cause of death in men under the age of 50 and in all adults under 35. Despite this, effective support is hard to find.

The Listening Place (TLP) meets this need by providing free, face-to-face, ongoing support to those who feel suicidal. And they know that their support works, with visitors reporting a highly-significant reduction in how suicidal they feel after 3 and 6 months of support.

To date TLP has supported 14000 people and aims to support 6000 this year.

In May we will be cycling 85 miles in the Scottish highlands in one day in memory of our cousin George. We would be so grateful for any support you can to give us extra fire on the disgusting climbs!

We want to raise as much as possible to support this amazing charity keep doing the important work it does.

Our cousin was a special person and we want to honour him and the far too many others that we lose every year.

All our thanks,

Louis and Angus
