Let's win the fight for mental health
Our thumbs are on the march - responding to those who have reached out for vital mental health support, 24/7.
But being there day and night takes funding, and we can't keep our service running without the help of people like you.

Could you volunteer for Shout?
Shout Volunteers are at the heart of everything we do. They're often the first person our texters have ever spoken to about how they are feeling.
As a Volunteer, you work to take someone in distress to a calmer place. In return, you get 25 hours of free mental health communication training and ongoing dedicated coaching to help others while developing skills for life.

Times are tough, but so are you
Remind yourself and others with our certified organic cotton merchandise, as worn by Scarlet Curtis and Shout Volunteer Alexis Caught. Every purchase helps to support Shout.

Testimonials
