Story

Pride @ Three have put together this team to help raise money for The Samaritans, in partnership with ThreeUk.

We are a staff network made up of LGBTQ+ colleagues and allies at Three and off the back of a successful Pride Month, we want to continue our support to our community.

Why we are raising money for the Samaritans?

Members of the LGBTQ+ community are disproportionately affected by mental health and suicide. In June 2020, LGBT Hero found that 11,000 people accessed its own suicide prevention pages during the first lockdown. That’s a rise of over 44% on the first three months of 2020.

We want to send a message to our peers and allies that we want to show support and that services like The Samaritans ARE available if you feel you cannot speak to your friends and family, or hitting rock bottom. You are appreciated and welcome in our group.

Pride @ Three are really excited to participate and reach our goal of 26.2miles each, for this years Samarathon. Please support us with any donation you can and be sure to keep up with our progress and photos.

Thank you!
