Story

Young people in mental distress need us now more than ever and Muslim Youth Helpline is on the frontline every day; 365 days a year providing culturally sensitive support to any young person in need.

The expert helpline team are busier than ever in our 19 year history and we've had a 313% increase on calls from desperate young people struggling to deal with anxiety, grief and feeling hopeless. 

Recently calls from young people who are suicidal has increased at an alarming rate and we desperately want to do more; sadly, we can't answer every call even though we have already increased the capacity of the helpline.  

It's gut wrenching to know how desperate these young people are when they call us so I am asking for your help so we can do more and do it now when it matters the most!   

Please help us and donate anything you can so we don't miss a single call and support every single young person who is in desperate need.

What we'll deliver:

  • Support more young people in distress by expanding our helpline service to take more calls especially from those who are suicidal.

Why it's a great idea:

During the Covid 19 pandemic the mental health of young people is taking a massive toll and our helpline is witness to this.

Expert helpline officers provide compassionate, confidential support and advice to strengthen young people's emotional resilience and help them to develop coping strategies so they can navigate their way through a difficult experience or situation.

Muslim Youth Helpline is a registered award winning charity operating for almost 20 years now.
