The Charity: PAPYRUS UK (Prevention of Young Suicide)
PAPYRUS was founded in 1997 by Jean Kerr, a mother from Lancashire. She and a small group of parents who had each lost a child to suicide were convinced that many young suicides are preventable.
The name, PAPYRUS, came from the original name of the charity, Parents Association for the Prevention of Young Suicide. From those early days, people have joined the charity which is now the UK-wide membership organisation dedicated to the prevention of young suicide.
