After months of planning and preparation, everything came together for Helplines Awareness Day 2026. The Developing in the Dark exhibition has welcomed so many guests including our members and partners, the Lord Mayor of Liverpool, Cllr Barbara Murray, and even a Premiership footballer.
A huge thank you to Rachel Brewster-Wright from Little Vintage Photography for her incredible hard work and commitment in bringing this exhibition to life.
View the exhibition throughout March at 92 Degrees Coffee, 49 Jamaica Street, Liverpool, L1 0AH.
We’re so proud of this exhibition and of every participant who so willingly shared their experiences to help others. Helplines really do transform lives.
Exhibition highlights
Faces Behind the Calls
Beyond the professional portraits, members of the public reached out to share their own images and stories. Unprompted, unprofessional in the most beautiful way, and utterly real. These are the voices of people who simply wanted the world to know: helplines matter. You matter.
To every single person who shared their story — thank you. Your strength and openness is what makes this exhibition truly alive.
