These services offer confidential support from trained volunteers. You can talk about anything that's troubling you, no matter how difficult:
  • Call 116 123 to talk to Samaritans, or email: jo@samaritans.org for a reply within 24 hours
  • Text "SHOUT" to 85258 to contact the Shout Crisis Text Line, or text "YM" if you're under 19
If you're under 19, you can also call 0800 1111 to talk to Childline. The number will not appear on your phone bill.
  • you are not able to speak to your local NHS urgent mental health helpline
  • you need help urgently for your mental health, but it's not an emergency
