The annual Grace Dear Trust charity football match

The annual Grace Dear Trust charity football match was a great success⚽️

Thank you to everyone at Claygate Casuals for organising a great day and for all the support we had when it was so cold and windy!

The money raised will kick start the new year and fund more mental health training so more people can support young people who are in need!

Goodbye 2021 and hello 2022!

Many people are inspired at the start of a new year and set themselves new challenges and goals 💪

What we want to say is you do you!

Don’t feel disheartened if 2022 hasn’t yet changed the way you’re thinking or feeling. It might be a new year but you are still the same and that’s ok 👊

Give yourself some love and attention and don’t let negative thoughts and feelings build up💜

Today is World Suicide Prevention Day 🌍 A day

Today is World Suicide Prevention Day 🌍

A day where we remember Grace along with many others who sadly see no other option than to end their own life 💜

Here our some important points we would like to get across today:

- Suicide is not selfish, it is not weak, it’s the only way for people to find peace. Grace didn’t want to die but she felt like she had exhausted all other options.

- Every 40 seconds someone in the world takes their own life

- 1 in 4 adults and 1 in 6 young people experience mental ill-health

Even though we are encouraged to talk openly about how we are feeling and there is more support available, suicide is still happening all across the world which is why we won’t stop support young people until we finally have 0 suicides!

Remember if you need support please don’t bottle your emotions up.

Call the @samaritanscharity
