Story

Advertising is about sharing ideas. It’s about sharing ideas that inspire us to help others. Ideas that persuade us to think differently. Ideas that reassure us when we feel vulnerable.

But while we find ourselves isolated from each other, sharing ideas is that bit harder. It’s why we’ve created ISOLATEDTalks.com. Our aim is simple: with your help, we want to keep sharing ideas.

By doing so we hope to raise money for the Samaritans. 

Indeed, the coronavirus crisis is the biggest challenge Samaritans has ever faced. Before Coronavirus hit, 20,000 Samaritans volunteers were answering a call for help every six seconds. This could be someone you know, family or friends in urgent need but unable to talk to anyone in the middle of the night.

The crisis is challenging the Samaritans’ ability to continue to offer this vital lifeline for so many people.

Your donation to Samaritans Emergency Appeal will help them reach those who are struggling to cope. It will help Samaritans recruit more volunteers and work faster on different ways to be there. 

By giving whatever you’re able, you will be helping someone who is in need because of coronavirus. It’s as simple as that. Whether it’s £5, £50 or £500, every penny you’re able to contribute will make a real difference.

So, thank you for whatever donation you make.

Be sure to tell others you donated too and tell them about the talks. By sharing the ideas and insight collected here, you are actively inspiring others to donate too.

Remember, by sharing ideas, you help to make a real difference to people’s lives.
