Almost half of men admit feeling sad or depressed over Christmas, say the Samaritans (Samaritans/PA)
Samaritans in the Western Isles have received help from the community wind farm charity Point and Sandwick Trust.
The Trust has donated £3,000 to the local charity to help with the costs of upgrading their base in Stornoway.
A spokeswoman for Stornoway Samaritans said: “We are affiliated to the central branch but everything is self-funding. All our income comes from grants, bag packing, rattling the can, that sort of thing.
“The reason we asked for the money is to refurbish this place. So hopefully that money from Point and Sandwick Trust will go some way towards helping us with a more inviting face-to-face area and also with updating our IT.”
