Raising awareness of The OLLIE Foundation
In March 2018, after approximately two years of crippling anxiety and school refusal, my son Noah was sectioned and hospitalised for 10 weeks due to suicidal ideation. Thankfully he is still with us. Some families are not so lucky and suicide rates in the UK are rising. We need to talk about suicide, for it can be preventable and not inevitable.
On 20th September I am hosting a clothes swap to raise money for The OLLIE Foundation with all proceeds going to this wonderful charity. If you would like to help me make a difference please think about donating, every donation will really help.
Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
More information about The OLLIE Foundation: In 2016, three parents who had all lost their teenage sons to suicide, vowed to do all they could to prevent other families suffering similar tragedies. And so The OLLIE Foundation was born. The OLLIE Foundation (One Life Lost is Enough) is a registered charity funding suicide intervention skills training for adults working with young people. This training enables every day people to identify warning signs and provide a pathway to help combat suicidal thoughts.
