News / Talk To Us, say Samaritans
THE CLOCK faces on Lerwick’s Town Hall will be lit green this weekend to raise awareness of the Samaritans.
A special flag will also go on display at the top of the building as Shetland Islands Council helps to mark the organisation’s nationwide Talk To Us campaign.
The council will encourage the public to share pictures of the Town Hall on social media.
They will ask people to post the images alongside hashtags such as #TalkToUs, #WeListen and #Samaritans.
The Talk To Us campaign aims to raise awareness of the Samaritans’ work in helping people who are feeling lonely, distressed and suicidal through providing one-to-one conversation.
