Shout is the UK’s only free, confidential, 24/7 text support service for anyone who is struggling to cope. Shout’s trained volunteers have taken 1.5 million conversations with children, young people and adults who were anxious, depressed, suicidal or overwhelmed and needed urgent support with their mental health. They respond to between 1,500-2,000 requests for help every day, listening without judgement. 59% of their texters say they felt they had nowhere else to turn, and 74% of conversations take place outside 9am-5pm, when other services aren't available.
Because the service is silent to use, many people who would have otherwise felt uneasy speaking out loud on the phone feel comfortable reaching out to Shout. It’s anonymous, and messages do not appear on your phone bill.
