Who are we?
Shout is the UK’s first 24/7 text service, free on all major mobile networks, for anyone in crisis anytime, anywhere. It’s a place to go if you’re struggling to cope and you need immediate help.
Shout is powered by a team of volunteers, who are at the heart of the service. We take people from crisis to calm every single day.
Shout exists in the US as ‘Crisis Text Line’, but this is the first time the tried and tested technology has come to the UK.
The anonymised data we collate gives us unique insights into mental health trends to help improve people’s lives.
There is also 7 cups of tea as an alternative, a chat as well and the "listeners" are somewhat trained but some are very blunt and rude.
There is no training which can make someone emphatic and a good listener. School can give you facts not a good heart. I am sorry to hear that you had an unpleasant experience.
We send our newsletter once a day with the very best deals, vouchers and freebies shared by our community. Make sure you don't miss all that lovely free stuff!
