In the UK, men are three times as likely to die by suicide than women.
We Provide Support
We support those affected by suicide and poor mental health across West Lothian and Clackmannanshire. We offer support groups and are also available for one-to-one chats over the phone and in person. We can help support and signpost you to relevant services, if required.
All of our support groups are safe and confidential spaces for people who are struggling and feel they need some support. We offer a safe space to listen, talk, and have a cuppa. No appointment needed.
Emergency Contacts
If you are suicidal or know someone who is, please get in touch so that we can signpost you to the correct help.
​
No one should ever feel that suicide is their only option.

People to walk.
People to show up.

There are distances suitable for absolutely everyone, and two locations left! There’s a walk that can fit around your life. Whether you stroll, wander, or power through —
What matters is visibility.
What matters is awareness.
What matters is being seen.
Every T-shirt worn, every step taken, every photo shared helps us spread the word about Neil’s Hugs and the difference this charity makes.
