Story
PAPYRUS is the national Charity for the Prevention of Young Suicide. Suicide is the biggest killer of young people under the age of 35 in the UK, in 2018 over 1800 young people took their own lives. PAPYRUS provides confidential support and advice to young people struggling with thoughts of suicide, and anyone worried about a young person through their helpline, HOPELINEUK. Every £5 raised can help pay for a life-saving contact to HOPELINEUK. Your donations really are lifesaving, thank you.
Swansea University is proud to support PAPYRUS and the invaluable work it does with young people in our community. HOPEWALKS take place across the UK throughout October to get the conversation started around suicide. We want Swansea's HOPEWALK to raise awareness, raise money and reduce stigma.
Please join us on our 3 mile circular beach walk - just remember to wear suitable footwear and dress sensibly!
