Prince William Duke of Cambridge and Kate Duchess of Cambridge Catherine Katherine Middleton have marked the first anniversary of Shout85258, the UK's first 24/7 crisis text line, by speaking to five of the organisation's Crisis Volunteers about their experience of providing support to the thousands of people who have texted Shout over the past twelve months. Shout is a legacy of the Heads Together campaign and was launched in May 2019 by The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and The Duke and Duchess of Sussex after a 3 million investment from The Royal Foundation. The service is powered by a team of more than 1,800 trained volunteers who stand ready to speak to anyone, whatever their crisis may be, at all times of the day and is free on all major mobile networks. Speaking over a video call on Wednesday (13th May), Their Royal Highnesses heard from five Crisis Volunteers and the organisation's Chief Executive, Victoria Hornby, about how Shout has grown.  In the past year, it has had 300,000 text conversations, two thirds of which have been with people aged 25 or under.  They spoke about how Shout is playing a vital role as the country continues to deal with the impact of coronavirus and how work on the frontline is affecting health and care staff as well as emergency responders and other key workers.  The volunteers also spoke about how lockdown has impacted young people's mental wellbeing, including how many are finding it harder to access their usual ways of maintaining good mental health but the difference a supportive text conversation can make.
