In the UK, we send around 110 million texts every day. In today’s episode, Victoria Hornby (Chief Executive of Shout, the UK’s only 24/7 text service for anyone struggling to cope) talks with Chris Fitch about text-based conversations and crisis, how Shout works, and what essential services can learn from Shout’s strategies for managing crisis conversations on a digital channel. You can find out more about Shout at www.giveusashout.org. Or if you are struggling to cope and need to talk, you can speak to a trained Shout Volunteer by texting the word ‘Shout’ to 85258.
