My Story

This year I am running the Great North Run for my local Samaritans branch - Northallerton and The Dales to support all of the wonderful volunteers there and the incredible work they do! 🏃🏽‍♀️💚

Whatever you're going through, a Samaritan will face it with you. They're here 24 hours a day, 365 days a year!💚

Suicide and mental health problems are becoming increasingly more prevelant and Samaritan's vision is that fewer people die by suicide. Their highly trained volunteers aim to do this by:

  • Reducing the risk factors that make some people more likely to take their own lives.
  • Ensuring that people who are at increased risk of suicide are supported.
  • Making it less likely that people who do experience suicidal thoughts act on them.
  • Reducing the likelihood that people will develop suicidal thoughts.

Every ten seconds, Samaritans respond to a call for help. No judgement. No pressure. They are there for anyone who needs someone💚

Any donation no matter how big or small could help train and support volunteers and support my local Samaritans branch making sure people struggling can be continuously supported by calling 116 123 for free📞💚
