HOPELINE247 is dedicated to providing free and confidential support and information via phone, text message (SMS), email and webchat*. We exist to help young people in the United Kingdom who may be looking for support with their thoughts of suicide, or anyone of any age seeking advice on how to support a loved one struggling with thoughts of suicide.

As part of our commitment to preventing suicide, we are available to help you if you are considering suicide or harming yourself, or if you are noticing warning signs in a friend or family member.

When you reach out to us you will talk with one of our trained suicide prevention advisers who are experienced in how to help people in your situation. They will listen to you, unpack your story and feelings, and work with you to help you through your challenges, creating a Suicide Safety Plan as part of that.

*We also offer support for Deaf/hard of hearing people and non-English speakers via interpreters, more information about this is on our website.
