Our mission is to support the organisations and individuals combatting the suicide epidemic. If we can help save just one family from the tragedy of suicide, this initiative will have been worth it.

The Rose Paterson Trust has been founded in honour of Rose, who took her own life in June 2020. The Trustees seek to raise funds to consolidate, amplify and strengthen suicide prevention projects.
