We urgently need your support to help us prevent all preventable suicides. This page provides a number of ways you can help us achieve this aim.
We only exist thanks to the generosity of those who donate or fundraise to support our work in helping to prevent suicides.
Each month is a constant balance between delivering our life-saving services and continuing to be able to operate.
We are on a Mission to create a society that is willing and able to do all it can to prevent all preventable suicides.
The Challenge we all face
Suicide is currently the biggest killer of adults under the age of 35 with more than 6,000 people dying every year in the UK. 75% of these deaths are men, 200 are school children and 100 are university students. The impact on families and loved ones of those left behind is devastating and has a long-lasting impact. These are shocking numbers, and we need to do something about it.
Many individuals who die by suicide have felt isolated, alone and have been struggling with mental health challenges. With the right support, every single one of them could have had a very different story.
But there is still no progress. The numbers are increasing at an alarming rate. For the past 16 years there has been no downward movement in the annual death toll. One suicide is one too many.
You can make a difference today
By supporting our efforts, to prevent all preventable suicides, you will become part of the solution.
Not everyone will experience a suicide loss, but 2 out of 3 people in the UK have, at some point in their lives, been impacted by such a death. The Phillip family, like so many others, had no idea it might happen to them.

Support our biggest initiative to date
The Jordan Legacy is taking practical steps to develop a vision for a national community network to encourage greater collaboration amongst those who want to see the numbers of suicides significantly reduce.
This is a significant undertaking that requires funding to help us create a development framework, a steering group and a national infrastructure to enable as many grassroots suicide prevention charities as possible to be able to have their voices heard and collaborate on specific suicide prevention projects around the UK.
How to contribute to One Voice, One Hope.
If you are a UK resident and you would like to directly donate to support this vital, life-saving initiative, please visit our JustGiving Crowdfunding page via this link.
The Jordan Legacy is a registered Community Interest Company (CIC) – Registered No. 12784768 – and relies solely on financial donations, from companies and individuals, all of whom want to support our efforts to help reduce the number of suicides.
