My story

I'm no stranger to those darkest hours before dawn. Five years after my husband died traumatically, I was engaged to a man who took his own life. I've had dark thoughts at times - quite recently this year after an assault and victimisation in the Church.
I'm lucky - I have people who support me. The Samaritans are there to help those who don't, or can't, talk to people who care.

I’m taking part in Dawn Walk this October and walking 5K at sunrise so that no one has to face their darkest hours alone. 1 in 4 of us have had suicidal thoughts and every ten seconds, Samaritans answer a call for help. Samaritans is the charity that prevents suicide through the power of human connection. Connecting people in crisis with trained volunteers who will always listen. 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Listening without judgment. Your donation will help someone with suicidal thoughts get help when they need it most. Just £10 could ensure a Samaritan is there to answer a life-saving call for help. Let's prevent suicide today. Because tomorrow's too late💚
