I honestly don't quite know where to start with today. The Petition has now reached over 450 signatures, yesterday evening it was at 341 so just under 100 people signed the petition within 24 Hours. Thank you to every single person who has signed or shared it.

Today, Warrington Worldwide also published a full article about the campaign and why I started it. Seeing my own story written down like that was quite surreal, especially when for years it was something I barely spoke about, also after my update yesterday I ended up making my National radio debut on LBC, I was contacted to speak about loneliness and young people but was also asked a few questions about the campaign too. 

And there also a couple of really exciting conversations happening behind the scenes at the moment. I don't want to say too much, just yet but hopefully there'll be more to share soon. 

The campaign is also moving beyond signatures. I'm speaking to charities, suicide prevention organisations, health services, MPs and others about what actually needs to happen next, because I don't just want to say something should replace HOPELINE247 - I want to understand what support would look like and how it can be made sustainable. 

I've said it from the beginning: I don't care what the service is called, who runs it or whose logo is above the door, they Just need someone to answer 

Thank you again for getting this to 450 signatures and for helping me get the conversation this far already. Please keep signing, sharing and talking about it.
