SHOUT
Shout is a free text messaging service which provides 24/7 support for anyone experiencing a mental health crisis. It aims to connects people in need to trained volunteers who provide help at a time when it is most needed; enabling them to move from a moment of crisis to a calm state and form a plan for next steps to find longer-term support. As texting is private and silent, it opens up a whole new way to find help.
It provides instant support – you can have a conversation at any time, at school, at home, on the bus, anywhere.
This service is for everyone, but for younger people especially; texting is a trusted and familiar form of communication, and using text rather than apps makes it simple and accessible for everyone with a phone.

Conor Mcillvenny
'Whatever you're going through just reach out and talk, it could save your life'
Conor bravely shared why he's planning to give back to his local community after facing his own mental health battle.
Conor, 32, manages Tribe Belfast boxing gym on Ormeau Road, but just a few years ago, he found himself in a very dark place.
Conor says fitness was his medicine and now fast forward a number of years, he's found a career as a personal trainer: "I'm very proud of myself for getting out of that dark hole, and it wasn't just all on me.
"I was surrounded by a very good, strong family who loved me. I had help with counsellors and therapists too but it was really fitness, going to the gym and training that helped me."
Now Conor is gearing up for another huge challenge running 7 Marathons in 7 Days from April 27 to May 3 to raise funds for a cause that means so much to him, West Wellbeing Suicide Prevention.
