Summary

Help to raise awareness of PAPYRUS and suicide prevention
in your local community.

Detailed description

Help to raise awareness of PAPYRUS and suicide prevention in your local community in a number of ways. For example, you could support PAPYRUS at events and festivals like Pride; spread our message of hope on social media; put up posters in your local GP surgery or simply wear a PAPYRUS t-shirt to the gym. Awareness raising fits around your schedule, and really helps us to spread our message further.

About PAPYRUS

PAPYRUS Prevention of Young Suicide is the UK charity dedicated to the prevention of suicide and the promotion of positive mental health and emotional wellbeing in young people.

Suicide is the biggest killer of people aged 35 and under in the UK. We believe that many suicides are preventable.

We are a leading youth suicide prevention charity in the UK. Our suicide prevention helpline, HOPELINE247, is staffed by trained suicide prevention advisers, who work with young people – and anybody concerned for a young person – to help keep them safe from suicide. HOPELINE247 is a free and confidential call, text and email service, which is available 24 hours a day, every day of the year (weekends and bank holidays included),

We work with communities across the UK, engaging them in our mission to prevent suicide in children and young people. We engage them through our resources and training, learning with them and galvanising them to help save young lives.

We also press for change to current legislation around suicide prevention on a regional and national level.
