Paul’s Place are launching the £1 for Paul’s Place fundraising campaign across the month of October!   Thanks to our Paul’s Place Ambassador, good friend, celebrant and Merseyside music legend Nasher for his kind message of support.   The story behind this campaign started with a simple conversation. "If every person putting £1 into a supermarket trolley could give that coin to a local charity, then the whole community could benefit"; this was one fundraising event but what if this was rolled out across a community for a month? Why October? On 13/10/2026 Paul’s Place Suicide Bereavement Programme will be celebrating the ninth anniversary of it’s unique and vital support! 10/10/2026 also happens to be World Mental Health Day.   Paul's Place is now working with a number of organisations across Merseyside to take donations, no matter what size, to help us to continue to provide free support to adults bereaved by suicide in this area. It doesn't have to be a £1, it could be 10p, £10 or a £100. The £1 is just to illustrate that an affordable amount can be given and when this is then multiplied by the number of people using shops, entertainment venues and other businesses over a month the community as a whole as well as individuals needing support can greatly benefit.   Donations of £2 or more can also be made through our Just Giving Page.
