My Story

I know what it's like to feel so desperate that you're right at breaking point. Just over 6 years ago I attempted suicide for the second time because I was spiritually and psychologically broken by mass organised targeting, both at my home, at work and online, all simultaneously. 

It also led to a breakdown. 

I lost everything and having someone who was unbiased, non judgmental and understanding to talk to was something that I now understand would have changed outcomes significantly.

I'm lucky to still be alive today.

Now, the met police have announced plans to stop attending most mental health call outs due to police forces being under serious constraint.

This will undoubtedly lead to further losses of life.

The Samaritans are more important than ever. 

So, I'm taking on Samarathon this July to help make sure that every call and cry for help can be answered. 

Whether you donate £5 or £500, your donation means a lot to me and could answer a call for help that literally saves somebody's life.

I've included more information about the Samaritans and their lifesaving work below. 

Thanks

Every 10 seconds, Samaritans answer a call for help. They do that day or night, for anyone who's struggling to cope, who needs someone to listen without judgement or pressure. 

Samaritans is not only for the moment of crisis, they're taking action to prevent the crisis.

They give people ways to cope and the skills to be there for others. 

Every life lost to suicide is a tragedy, and Samaritans vision is that fewer people die by suicide.

That's why they work tirelessly to reach more people and make suicide prevention a priority.
