We’re Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), and we’re a suicide prevention charity. We host a helpline for people affected by suicide, as well as vital online resources for anyone who needs them.

Story

Hi all! I am Matt, mental health nurse, Father, Husband and once appeared on a reality TV show (Rise and Fall - C4).

I am so incredibly passionate about what CALM do, professionally, but also personally. Unfortunately, we have experienced suicide in my own family. No one, absolutely no one should ever feel the need, or feel so desperate to take their own life. There should always be support out there for someone to turn to.

We’re Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), and we’re a suicide prevention charity. We’ve got loads of tools and resources to help people find the support they need, including a life-saving helpline for people who can’t see a way forward, have lost someone to suicide, or are worried about their friends or loved ones.

£12.20 is enough to fund one potentially life-saving call.
